Anyone happen to know about how high is the top speed of a 82L. I dont know what gears are in it. (car is not currently here right now) Im assuming it is the 3.73 cause thats whats been in all the other 82L ive seen so far at the yards. has the punkass digital85 speedo. but before my cousin gave me the car he topped it out. i was guessing that we were going about 130ish (ive done a lot of speeding) can anyone confirm whether im anywhere close. also will that change any with the 6m?

5MGEs redline @ 6500rpms, dunno about the others, I figure about the same.
BTW, my old 200k miles 85 P type 5 speed ( 4.30LSD ) over-pegged 130mph a few times. Assuming the speedo was accurate I figured she still pulled another 5mph afterwards. Got her to about 6000rpms before we shut down.
The only time I've ever been able to take my Blackpra over 100mph is when I was only running on 4 cylinders.
I was running against my friends '98 Neon 5 speed and neither one of us could get over 110mph ( I figured not too bad dragging 2 bad cylinders )
usually 3.727 I believe...
