hey everyone, out of pure curiosity what is the top speed floored of a 1985 Camaro with i believe a from factory upgraded transmission, with a 3.4L engine? I know the speedmeter only goes up to 85 MPH because the government was trying to cut down on speeding in the 1980's but 85 is just silly so what numbers can i expect? Also what are some peoples best speeds from stock 3rd gen 'maros or birds¿

85's had 3.4's?
Well, in mine, I'm pretty sure the top speed is 108 or 118......one of those.......<a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/leonwithneons\" target=\"_blank\">1997 Grand Prix GTP</a> -
the 3.8s dont have TOO much trouble getting up to 120, but thats when the speed limiter kicks in. I'd like to know from someone who has a chip I've got it up to 130 going downhill, though.
