When does your rev limiter kick in? Need to know for the next track car.

I have a 03' mach1 engine going into my 95' right now but its still in the shop so you will have to wait a month to find out but it wont really matter cause its going to be dyno tuned and will have a higher limiter

And aprils 71' Mach1 doesnt have a rev limiter, well not stock anyways

I believe it's somewhere North of 7K I've held 6800 rpm
on the dyno and some shifts and haven't hit the limiter yet.
redline is different for automatics (cast crank) 5800/6000rpm i think.

Ok I have the answeres you need.

Automatic: 5,800 RPM (6,250 fuel cutoff)
Manual: 6,800 RPM (7,050 fuel cutoff)

These are 2003 specs, I would assume that they would be the same for 2004.

you'll probably get your best results shifting at about 6500.

Go online and find a dyno sheet of an absolutly stock Mach1. Figure out where peak power is made and then shift there. Pretty easy.
