There is governor in the black box, ignition cuts Off at 115 MPH and comes
back on at 110 MPH. Engine
Only doing 2800 rpm in fourth gear at 115 MPH.
FYI -The engine is goverened to that speed due to several things but mainly
due to the speed rating of the original tires.

My car history has one theme. All American/rear wheel drive/V8 except
the first.
'69 Camaro V6 chevy
'71 Sport Lemans V8 pontiac
'71 Cutlass Supreme V8 olds
'79 Cutlass Supreme V8 olds
'84 T-Bird V8 ford
'95 T-Bird LX V8 ford
No imports on my list of any make.
I havent bought a car in over a dozen years. This
'95 T-Bird has been far and away the best car
I have ever owned. 4.6L V8 DOHC multiport fuelie
With rear wheel drive and independent rear
Suspension. Just over a 100K miles on it and still
Running smooth as silk. Only thing I don't like is
There is governor in the black box, ignition cuts
Off at 115 MPH and comes back on at 110 MPH. Engine
Only doing 2800 rpm in fourth gear at 115 MPH.
I would really love to find out how fast it would
Top out at with the governor ripped out. I have
A beef with Ford Motor Company on that one.
What is odd, is if I had the reasonable money
To put together/buy any car I wanted today,
I would go back to the '69 Camaro but go with
Compeltely restored stock exterior and interior
But all new top line 2009 drive train, electonics, and suspension.
That would be freakin aweseome as a daily driver.
Too bad I cant even come close to affording that
Setup. Oh, well its nice to have a plan at least.
