If your motor is in reasonable condition it should turn toward 4,000 RPM safely so your top speed is more than 80 mph.

Assuming it has a point type ignition I would not be surprised if old points start floating around 4500 limiting your top speed. I don't know the 292 well enough to speculate on its other limitations.
