Won't the car hit the speed limiter in 4th?

Anyway shouldn't matter, it's all calculated numbers anyway. The only true measure of power is directly off the crankshaft. The gearbox is simply a tourque multiplier to allow the car to move at different speeds.

Thanks for setting me straight, Blue.

The engine hit the limiter in 4th with both manifolds.
It just took 30 seconds to get there.
