What's the "Floored" Speed/RPM of a 83 to 85 300D?

What's the "Floored" Speed of a 83 to 85 300D? Having redone my chain, pulled and retimed my pump, adjusted my valves and finally having getting that nice Diesel "tick tick tick tick" at idle, I want to make sure my top end is optimized.
I do remember cruising down the Turnpike at 85 mph effortlessly at 85 mph and relatively low (3500 RPM) two years ago before my car went into full overhaul.
This morning on the way in, it was chugging hard to hit 70 and it was at 3400 rpm, and I need to adjsut my Linkage.
