Think you might be off... 70mph gets you to 5962RPM with 3.27 gears. Don't the Mark VIII motors rev to 6000?
Every Mark I have ever driven shifts at 6300RPM, but I am on my GT tune which stops it at 6K. Here is a 0-80MPH video of my car and you can clearly see it almost at 6K at 64MPH. I do have 17" wheels, so that may be whats throwing it off.
