Cool article and thanks for posting...

But I have to raise some question with that claim. The average musclecar with a non overdrive transmssion. terrible aerodynamics and typical gearing(3.55-4.10) will likely float all the valves at 120-130 or so. A Chrysler wingcar with ultra high gearing (2.56) would be a possible exception.

Thanks for posting this historical article

150 mph = 240 kmh and that´s a lot of speed for 1969!!!!
