ccgoodwrench Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 110, speed limiter. and i did notice the hood starting to wiggle, I think Mr. P has a good idea with the rubber in between the hood and grill. I wonder if that will help track times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnAmerican Revolution Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Ive had my speedo barried a couple times in the SS no real accurate way to tell speed. Id say around 120ish max in the truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 If someone can find the coefficient of drag (Cd) and frontal area I can give you a graph of HP required to reach any top speed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huero626 Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 The fastest I have gone in my truck is 108mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montanass Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 I've had it up to about 120(ish) once, it was more than enough thrill for me so i haven't decided to try it again. I've been much faster in/on other vehicles (cars/crotch-rockets) but they're a whole different breed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you gonna keep the hood locked though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04CHASE Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 lol havent thought hopefully it holds im sure as hell not putting pins in it. it may get shakey but it should hold. the cowl should be good for some extra down force. i may put some weather stripping on the bottom of the hood like p said.

chpspecial Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 According to the Jeep srt-8 that I was fallowing, he hit 150 and I was on his tail catching up. this was done in a very straight rural street with no cross traffic or anything else for miles.
