It seems to me that maybe we need to get together and find this out for
ourselves, may I suggest Montana?
P.S. I've only had my '97 up to 110, the engine (only had 230 miles on it
at the time) was past the 4700RPM redline [on the tach] in third gear.
The only way I could get the trans to shift into 4th was to let off the
gas a little. It shifted into 4th at 105, but I was accelerating at about
1mph per second, so I let off. BTW when I was doing 105 in fourth, I
think the tach was about 3700RPM (Not too sure though, at that speed I was
keeping my eyes glued to the road)
I've got this program called cartest, it lets you plug in stuff about your
car and it simulates 1/4 mile runs, 0-10 thru 0-100mph times, gas mileage,
top speed and alot of other stuff. The only thing I didn't know was the
coefficient of drag Cg, which I pulled off of a different truck: 0.450.
I'll put it on my webpage if anyone else wants it.
