Really? Must take awhile to get from 160-187?

Wow! That is a HUGE and impressive number. Where can we see proof of that? Without doing it ourselves?

My 8-speed auto 2SS seemed to hit a governor at 172mph indicated on a private road.

Thumbs up 50th Anniversary

I got my 50 to hit 162 with which seemed to be a ton of power leftover. Adrenaline was through the roof! The smoothness of the car at those speeds are impeccable! I think it really takes off after 5th gear! Words can't explain how powerful this car is. I really have to stay disciplined.

I've been 175 in mine and that took long enough. Definitely can't reach 187 ^

The SS has a top speed limiter in the ECM which is set to 180 from the factory.

It goes about 300mph but is electronically governed at just 180.

no it does not have a limiter. its drag limited to 180. Which means it CAN go faster or CAN go slower. Convertibles, 4cly and V6 models are electronically limited.

Yep, it's really about gearing. If you're willing to accept a bit of a slower 0-60 time you can change out the rear end gear and get her closer to 200 mph.

Just make sure you have tires that will do it too.
