I hit A buck O' three in the 1600 wagon!! (downhill) It was at 5 3/4 rpm, so i let off...

 

My spfi loyale did 105-110 tops, and that was pedal to the metal for a minute or so! Wit the 15" pugs and street tires, it says 95 now, but i don't think thats right...

RallyKeith,

Holy crap! What rpm were you turning at 120 in that thing? Is it 2wd or 4wd?

 

I guess maybe mine's always had not-so-good compression, but that it has gotten worse recently. In two months when she's rebuilt I'll find out though.:cool:

 

It was only a 2wd, and I don't remember. I know that I was past where the numbers stop on the Speed-o. This was about 7 or 8 years ago so I don't remember. Plus, it really is about a 10 mile stretch that we used to reach the final speeds.
