I hit mine, briefly, on a burn out. No big deal, just let off the gas.

Tom, so your shift light actually comes on? Mine doesn't seem to and I thought later GM ECM calibrations didn't turn it on anymore. But maybe I just have a bulb burned out...[/quote]
I have only had my car since last August, but I have never seen a shift light on my car either. I don't know that I want to see it. ![]() |

I've never hit the rev limiter. When I dynoed my car I had the operator rev it because I didn't want to do it, he never hit it either-for the reason it wouldn't show more HP or TQ by doing so. I agreed & will probably do it myself next dyno...

I'm not sure if my limiter is enabled...that or the tach is off a little. But I can get way over 7K and near 8K without any limiter. I have stock gears and can hit 84MPH easy in 2nd. Is that normal?
