Trying to find a good looking replacement for the crappy v6 overlay on my gauge cluster someone installed. Most seem to show like a 7k red line. Isn't it jsut before 6k on the stock GT tach?

When ever you floor it in 1st and it goes BRAAAAAH ,stall, BRAAAAAAH, stall, BRAAAAAAH, stall....that is redline.


Do you want to know to avoid run ups to redline or are you looking for the general peak horsepower for optimum shift points?
