i have done the math and with my final drive of 3.73, the gear ratio in OD: .696 my rear tire size (285/40-18) 26.976 inches i would need to turn 6030 rpm in top gear to reach 300 kph..

the rear is a 12 bolt, tranny is a 4l60e engine is 2002 LS1.. converter is a muscledrive so it can handle the torque in lockup.. and my tranny controller allows me to run WOT in top gear in lockup..

the car is as aerodynamic as a barn! its a mildly (3-inches) lowered 79 bu with suspension to handle both the speed and stopping.. i figured i could add a small lower lip spoiler and possibly a 2 inch nascar duck tail type spoiler to keep the front and rear from lifting too much.. but the less spoiler the less drag.. im not going to mount narrow tires or moon wheel covers just to go the extra 2 kph...
