On our last long trip in the 83 SD we hit around 103-104mph quite easily with the 617 It still had room left to accelerate too, its able to reach and hold 100mph+ way easier than our 3.0liter V6 gasser minivan can, that thing makes a lot of strange noises 90+ and you can tell some not good things are going on under the hood... Kindof a groaning/dying sound. Not to mention you can just about watch the gas gauge fall on it too when you try that, hahaha.
