Mike is very easy to deal with. Just talked to him the other day and he was as friendly on the phone as he was in person. Good guy.

With those tires, 3.42 rears, and a 5th gear ratio of .74:1 6400 rpm = 197 mph
6800 rpm = 209 mph. Pretty insane man.

I'll keep in mind the pic you sent. Just going to use 6th for cruising and gas mileage. LOL Who would've thought a 541 rwhp 505 rwtq 402 could get 27 mpg on the expressway?

sorry for the slow response, been on a cross country family adventure since my last post.... not sure how soon i can or will make it up that way(these family adventures are killing my mad money) but i will gladly record said activities and data record if and when i do.

6th is def designed for cruising/MPG in our case. 27 seems to be the magic number for a well tunned cammed M6. thats what i get also.....
