Redline = 100rpm before the motor blows up. :)

It's strange though...The Dak's, from what i've heard, are "Roller Motors".
What's up with the 5200rpm Redline?? My old Camaro with the Roller Cam,
Lifters, and Rockers had a redline of 7200rpm (and 408 Cubic Inches...not
239). Guess Dodge just doesn't build them like they should. (That's why we
have the DML.)

    I guess a rev limiter is to a redline as an idiot light is to a real
guage, like a "door a jar" (space=pun) is to actually thinking about where
that extra wind is coming from.
