j4nash Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 For the fist time I had my truck to 130mph and that is where the windows suck in. at 130 there is not much left to accelerate I think that top speed is probably about 132mph with our gears.

misterp Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Hmmm yeah I'll keep that in mind. I've got a good 18-20mph to go before catching you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 ive had it wide open over 120 and then it shifted,i think it may have more than that. it was fast and the rpms kept going up so i would say its right around 140. maybe i can get somone brave enough to see how fast it actually goes.

j4nash Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Well ate 130mph I was at about 5500rpm I will have to pull up my hp tuner log to check for sure. All I know it that when I looked down it was at 130mph. so I don’t think that a 140 is possible with a close to stock truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounome Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 They will do 140 Bryan from PCM for less and I found that out in my truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was definately fast enough for me! I believe that it would hit 6000 rpm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PewterC3 Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 the C3 has 3.73's. I've had mine to 5400rpm in 3rd (and was still climbing) when I ran up on traffic....which equates to roughly 135 mph. I'm sure it's capable of 140 but don't know how much more. edit: oh yea I forgot...didn't notice the windows sucking in though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSplaytoy Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 My SS breaks your neck back, shifting after the needle pegs 120, and keeps going. I was aside my friends vette to see how fast I was going. 140 according to him, but my truck had 22's at the time and starting feeling extremely light on the road so I slowed down, but forgot to look at the rpm's.

zippy Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 the best i've done in an SS is 136 according to hptuners. i still have the log saved. in that same log the 0-60 was 4.625. the speed was still climbing, but not as fast as the IAT's were.

CoolBlueSS Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 I've been 140 in my 70 GTO. That was pretty damn scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEEZARR1&SS Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Well since is post started I had to go and try and see how fast it really goes. So at 120 shifted pretty hard, on to 135 by gps, no windows sucking in, still had a lot to go, I woulda gone faster but cops and cars were a small problem. Maybe next time.

jmitch19 Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 I've had my truck a little over 120. I was still in 3rd gear. I'm not sure if a basically stock truck could pull OD. I had my 94 z28 up to 147. 4th gens have no window frames so the windows were really makin some noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
