Subject: L99 redline.
I noticed the gages reflect the published V6 redline of 7000 RPMs yet the redline on the gage for the SS shows apx 6500 or 6600 RPMS for the V8. Its assumed the V8 used in the SS cars is the L99 since it s mated with a Automatic trans. The published redline for that motor is 6000 RPMS.

I’m optimistic that the real redline for the L99 is 6500/6600 RPMS but I’m skeptical due to what people have been saying about the AFM limitations imposed on the L99 valve train.
Anyone have any more detail on this subject? Do we know what the real redline for the L99 is?

One more thing, anyone that was at the event see a good place for me to mount my TOM TOM? I got to have my GPS ya know.
