Stock wheels, tires and gears I think you should be able to do 140mph @ 5,990rpms. I might be wrong though.

it will be lower in 4th, however the gears will lower your top end so you can use 5th gear and reach a higher top speed

nice signature. I don't know much about them other than some general things, so I don't give advice

My 5.0 with 3.73's did a about 115 in 4th... so 4.10's should be similar in a 4.6 as it has a higher red line.

well if you have a tr3650 like i believe you do and stock tire diameter.... your car will pull up to around 5800 rpms so over that HP actually decreases.... at 5800 rpms in 4th gear and 4.10 gears you are going 108.08 miles per hour....gear calculator 5th gear would be 174.322mph not that youd ever be able to go that fast
