^ Not a chance in hell......

5500=117mph

If you can get it to 6000 that's 127 this is all assuming stock W58, 4.3 diff and 225/50/16 tires.

5 speed or auto, and which rear end? Mine is 5 speed with 4.30 lsd, and at 5500rpm in 5th I would be going about 115 to 120 mph.

Hey My friend is giving me an lsd from an 87 turbo.
what that make me top out longer or what?

Depends on ratio

3.9:1 = 140 @ 6000
3.73:1 = 147 @ 6000

I can't see an NA doing it though just not enough power to push that much air without having a 5>10 mile run up.

When discussing top speeds I'm talking about GPS verified not going by the stock speedo.
