[QUOTE="Tofufi, post: 606745, member: 38"] I still count overtaking something in my bus as an achievement :msn4: Very much depends on gearbox ;) By my reckoning 3500rpm should be about 61mph with a standard gearbox, wheels and tyres. As the original poster has a type 4 engine, I'd hope they have a 5 or 6 rib gearbox to go with it, or the extra power is just wasted! :) By comparison, my bus does 70mph at 3500rpm :D (Standard wheels and tyres) [img]http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b24/jdiwell/Nij/IMG-20140606-00102.jpg~original[/img] [/QUOTE]
