I've done it a couple of times, and the engine starts to shutter and sounds really bad. Although I'm not sure about the exact RPMs, but probably around 5500 or so.

The injectors in a 94-98 v6 are only 14lbs. My car used to start bucking around 3500 in overdrive. (in reply to Stangbanger) Post #: 3

Maybe a Fuel filter or something else but anyway I dont think its a fuel issue as a stock 5.0 comes with 19 Lb/Hr injectors and it hits the limiter just fine. I used to use the stock one for a staging rev limiter (in reply to Stangbanger) Post #: 4
