How fast is fast enough.

Someone needs to put the 200 SHO on a BlackJack 224 then put the 300 ECM in it. Then you would be saving some real money.

evidently it's a lot more expensive to go up to the 300 due to the electronic controls...

more interested in cruising speeds. my guess it would add 5-10mph???

I read on a forum last week (forgot which one) that a guy did exactly this. He reported speeds around 70 mph. He also reported RPMs up to and over 6400. My stock 250 SHO is 6000-6100 RPMs WOT at 63-64 MPH on a BJ. I imagine he is telling the truth because the performance he is getting seems very attainable. I can't imagine that this is good for the engine in the long run and I assume it nulls your warranty. Sounds like fun though! If I can find the website again, I'll post it up.
