So, new question. When could you ever rev the GT500 to 8200 RPM?

You couldn't. It had the same function though for the most part. I believe its original red line was 6250, but once properly warmed and what not it could be held up to 7000 RPM for a period of time as well.

So, really the whole thing is bogus. It doesn't apply to any Mustang. That's good news, but I would still like to know how the engineers planned to implement such a thing. It is one thing to come up to the redline and another to be forced down from 8200 to 6250.

Rumors do occasionally become facts and accidental leaks of info happen.Don't jump into the conversation after the fact and act like you knew the truth all along.

I didn't say I knew the truth, so I didn't say anything until I looked into it a little further and saw it had apparently been debunked. I like to do some fact-checking before commenting on something I'm not familiar with, others may not see that as a priority...

The following was my first post on the overrev that was answered with a point to the Mustang site the first posted it. Overev is a bizarre feature so why wouldn't we discuss it? Maybe you should do a little more fact checking
