Did I hurt the Stang?

it shouldn't hurt anything. Just don't make a habit of bouncing off the rev limiter.

manually shifting will really hurt your auto-trans and when racing it hurts e.t.'s I tell you from experience, I did burn some trans clutches doing that.

You did this in an auto? Damn bro be careful...

I use to do that all the time in my camaro, but I had a stage 3 th350 with a full manual valve body. Man that thing would like some F&%*ing tires up. I ended up putting a 700r4 in it. Wanted that overdrive. I was turning 3K at 60 mph. Of course I can run it up to 7K

Are you sure it was the rev limiter?

On mine the stock rev limiter is set at 6250 . I also know the 99+'s have a fuel shutoff "safety" feature that will cut the fuel if it notices the revs at the limit for a few seconds. There is a switch in the back of your trunk that you have to push if you think they may have happened. If it was sputtering, you may have enabled that "safety" feature. Just a thought.

Very doubtful you hurt anything, but as everyone else has said, dont make it a habit!!!

It should be fine, if it didnt blow then its probably ok.For some reason my 04GT hit the rev limiter at 6K right before I shifted into 3rd when at the track.I am not sure why but I guess crazy things happen sometimes.

Me too. Manually shifted the AOD in my 91 at the track on Tuesday. Transmission began slipping on Saturday. As for the limiter, don't worry too much about it. Someone I know with a '00 GT, hit it during every burnout at the track. His car is fine. But yeah, don't do it too much.
