I remember hearing about that motor. It was an 11,000 RPM motor, but they had to limit it to 9,000 to keep it from frying th accessories. The tach only went to about 7 or 8.

The Max was still quicker though... But, top speed, the SHO would Wax dat ***- the matter would be finiding a driver ballsy enough to take a SHO to 145.
