how far have you wrapped your moonies?

[chadcmb]

i dont know were to put this but i was just wonding how far people have wrapped their moonie gauges with the 88-90 chevys or whatever has the moonies. i have stock 350 with headers and i hot them to the 25 back around. ill try and get a good picture sometime soon. post up yours and what mods you have that i could do maby?

I didn't know they went back around....now I gotta try this....

once orange line at the end of my moonies disappears into the dash, it starts coming up black starting at 0mph and goes up. Ive had the black go up to about 15 on a trip to St. Lucie...

est. to be about 95-105mph. solid as a rock at those speeds as well :fsc:

[chevysnbuicks]

considering the gauges only go to 85, and 88-99s are limited to 96 or 97 mph, I sure haven't.

[dimerunner88]

do it all the time, the ol'305 wraps them back around to 10-12mph. anyone ever checked to see how fast that really its?

Pretty sure it didn't start cutting out until the 4l60e came out, cause I've had mine wrapped around pretty far.

i got up to the 25-35

Yeah, for some reason it didn't do it before, but I wrapped it up against a newish v-6 junk-stang. I think it hit the limiter @ 98, but I'm not sure. I think it showed about 15.

RCLBs and RCSB have a one-peice drive shaft that hits its resonance frequency at about 100 mph.

*edit* that's why they have the limiter @ 98ish.

I had my gauge up to 15 or 20 once, with 3.08 gears it has a lot of top end.

hmmmm never knew they wrapped around ...

Canadian cluster goes to 140 Kmh, had it wrapped around to 60 Km on the flip side once. Had to slow down after that, didn't feel like getting thrown in jail for doing 120 MPH.

The speed limiter has nothing to do with which transmission is in there. It's PCM controlled. My buddies 91 cuts out at 100ish.

I didn't think the speed limiters were introduced until 93 or 94? When I had a custom chip done once the programmer said that the 91 chip did not have a speed limiter. ??? He said that they starting coming on the trucks about 93/94, but they can be programmed out anyway. All I know is my 91 is capable of going well past the 100.

Not my buddies 91 or my other buddies 89 for that matter. :dunno:

I didn't know just make a guess since my 93 would cut out and the 90 doesn't seem to.

That's weird, maybe the Canadian ECM programs are different :dunno:


Come to think of it, maybe that's why I didn't have a problem. Because the chip was/is not stock as a result of the SC...

[S/C Z71]

Who knows. :dunno: I remember 10 yeas ago when I drove moms 89 Ford Aerostar :run: Fugger would cut out at 90ish. My buddies parents 96 Windstar would do 120+. :wtf:

Sit the next few out..
