Does anyone's E7 headed 5.0 spin to 6200 at all? I've badly missed shifts and severely lost traction more than a couple times and never bounced off the limiter, or even seen the tach get close to that high.

ive hit atleast 7k once or twice before, by accident

5.0 85 GT

yea, when i light em up i only hit about 56-5800 rpm's..i havent realyl wound it out to 6200 yet, and yea ur car has the 8.8 with 3:08's thats what i have in mine, my first gears goes to liek 40 mph..lol but id drop some 355 or 373's in there and beef up the 8.8 a little bit if you want, i belive it is a very strong rear end, and the 5.0 we have is a pushrod motor..good luck man, let me know what you do with your car, i will prohbably follow along wiht the mods as well, let me knwo what works..

i will be moding the car only if its extremely cheap. things like reducing weight, bumping timing and learning to drive it will be all for now. is there a throttle body coolant bypass for these motors? also the car has headers and a off road h pipe with stock mufflers. im going to unbolt the mufflers because i think they will be restrictive and should sound better.

If anything get aftermarket mufflers. Losing the backpresure that a muffler causes can reduce Hp.
