Message	I assume you meant 130mph, which a) doesn't require 5th gear with 4.10 gears (but is close) and b) doesn't make sense given you (old) mod list. I clocked through the 1/4 in 4th gear at 130mph... SS ____________________________________________________ We face formidable challenges. I am not afraid of them. I am prepared for them.
