If going fast is a priority you probably need to make some changes to the drivetrain. My GMC Suburban with a basically stock engine and transmission will easily do 75 with only a change to a 3.08 rear.
And yes it has upgraded brakes to go with the increased speed.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | |
