0-140 vid
First WOT runs from 0-140 short shifting at 7000 rpm or so. Just testing a bit and cautiously rowing the gears. The clutch needs to be bled bad. At 7700 in 4th gear its 156 mph. I need to take the VC's off and check the top end again and check a few things out...but it seems to be ready to go down the strip. I need to hook up the Autometer tach so I know exactly what RPM I am spinning to. The stock tach lags sooo bad.
Hopefully will be out there Sunday bright and early.
Not much to see in the vid...but you can hear good

I wish I could view it, for some reason it only plays the first five seconds of the video. Do you have another host or anything? I want to see it!

lol...the speedo is correct...but that doesnt matter...go by the rpm and the tire size. If I were to top out that 4th gear to 7700 rpm I would be going close to 160. I was likely only around 6700 rpm in 4th...you can tell I didnt spin it up too far. 6700 rpm x 28.5 tire with my rear gear in 4th =140 mph. The speedo is slow to respond.
Either way its a guess. 138-140-142.....doesnt mean much till I go to the track. But its somewhere around 140.
FYI...first gear alone is about 55 mph
