at 4000 rpms and in 6th? I'm traveling 76-77. I typically set my cruise at 4000 because it's not too noisy when driving for long distances on the hwy. How fast do you all usually cruise at?

4K in 6th should translate to about 72 mph, since each 1K rpm=about 18 mph in 6th.

Speedo off 4-5 mph seems pretty high. Should keep me from getting pulled over though.

Hey Scot, you got 161 mph as well? You're the only member besides me that got that exact speed. Cool. 162 is undoable in my car, it won't budge.
