The horsepower on mine topped out at 6300 RPM but I have the rev limiter set at 6,000. The engine is old and I don't need to be driving it at high speeds anyway. Especially with the original tires on there and they are 44 years old. When I blow it out I do so in 2nd or 3re gear so if one of the old tires does explode I won;t be going so fast and tear the car up.
