Well as far as fox bodys go I had just finished the M&M and torque arm set up as well as disk,5 lug, and a 302 OMC cobra boat motor swap in my 91GT and on the short test drive I hit the on ramp at 80 in second (2.73) and backed off half way up in 4th at 130+. 157 I dont know yet but will be finding out.

What RPM at 130? Shifting to fifth with the stock 0.62 overdrive is like dropping the anchor, especially with stock gears.

Not sure on the rpm but it pulls about 110-120 at the end of 3rd. And yes 5th is and road block in my buds 99 so I assume the same in a fox.

I am sure your car would hit 170 just fine. When I used to have an overdrive on my tranny before it blew I used to hit 140 know problem and my motor is pretty stock.
Just watch out for those bridges that they have on the freeways, those things are huge bumps at 140mph.
I think this is the reason for my tranny blowing up too. Too many 140mph runs.
