          Here's what power you need to be making at the rear wheels to hit your target speed. Don't forget to take into account your gearing and what power you'll be making at what rpm. Too tall a gear and you'll run out of power, too low and you'll run out of gear. 3.73's or 4.10's would definitely make it easier to hit 150mph though.

          MPH = HP
          100 = 60
          110 = 80
          120 = 100
          130 = 125
          140 = 150
          150 = 190
          160 = 225
          170 = 270
          180 = 320
          190 = 375
          200 = 435

          4th Gen Fbody
          Coefficient of Drag 0.34
          Frontal Area (sq ft) 22

                i hit 145 mph on the highway at about 4800rpm, i think i could of easily hit 150 if i hadnt had to stop for upcoming traffic. I had 3.42s at the time!

                      The search feature is great on this site. Auto non-Y87 3.08's, Y87-3.42's nd with all 5-speeds 3.23's. Been covered 1million times. (Yes I counted)

                          The .34 drag and 22 sq. ft. can be adjusted. body kits, lowering, small body mods can get the drag down.

                            I went 128mph, when my speedo wasnt working and then calculated it through a website by RPM rear gear, and tranny gear.
