Huh? in what gear? I have a dealer ( amsoil) that runs a 2003 Dodge hemi 5L and runs 4.10's
and he goes well above 130 mph. so it should be no problem. Is some one just trying to have fun with you?

Well it depends on your tranny and tire size.
theres sites on the web that can help you caculate what tire size and final gear needed for whatever top speed you prefer.
I'm guessing the person who told you 80mph what talking about revving out 4th gear or even 3rd."
I have 3:73's on a 26" tire and I max out 3rd at around 85mph. with a bigger tire maybe 90mph.thats with a factory t-5 trans.
