have you run your car at the track......you should hit 5th before the end of the 1320...

your speedo may show 150mph but thats most likely because you have not change the Pcm and it still thinks you have 3.42s

you can argue with me but your not right......ITS NOT GOING TO GO 150+ WITH THE STOCK TIRE AND 4.10s IN 5TH....no ifs ands or buts about it....a little Over 130 is all that its going to do...

look...my good friend has 4.10s in his M6 97...and he loves them...he just cant go over 133 in 5th with them....he runs out of gear...its simple math...
and the tachs in the camaros are always of by a bit....they have a correction factor that you can watch on a lap top or autotap..so if it said 6,000 ...your most likelt around 5,800
with the 4.10's in the 1/4 mile im still in 4th at about 105... thank you.... with the 3.42's im in 3rd at about 107@6300... my tach has been corrected, unless the hypertech is wrong, i set my needle to what the hypertech read, so your friend car must have the redline still set at 5750... keep in mind mine is set to 6300... so have a nice day & my car does 150 in 5th with 4.10s....
