Your gearing is higher (which is a lower number).
Once I put in the 4.11's with the new rear end that number will be lower.
Should be around 96 MPH with the new gears, 6700 RPM's, and 26" tall tires.
Per the calculator I used, stock is actually 106 MPH with 3.42 gears and 6200 redline on a 6-speed LS1 F-Body.2008 Trailblazer SS

black on black on black- 02 z28
i loved my 410 's when i was going light to light...but with stock cam it needed more rpm... then when you try to get on it on the freeway it felt like something was wrong, i hated it... now i like my 373's but would the 410s pull harder with a big ass cam..
