yeah! you're right Craig! its around that neighborhood, depends on the grade of the interstate. obviously if the road is uphill, i have higer RPMs compared to flat and level and going down as well. i notice it runs quiter and smoother when i'm running high RPMs, between 3500-4500 when in top or 4th gear than when high revs at "S". is it because of the faster relative wind going in the intake or the car is just too fast and leaves the noise behind?

on the tachometer, it doesn't have any redline on it? it's from 0 to 5 to 60 X 10. i wonder how much RPMs is the red or danger zone? do you happen to know it by chance

I have a differential from a 1985 380SE. Car has ABS, so there is an opening for the sensor. From what I've read, it's a 2.47, but I will check to make sure.

Anyone wanna make me an offer on this differential?

I routinely hit 110 in my euro 300D with a bad alignment.
