Rev limiter for 6 speed??

I wanted to know if 6speeds have rev limiters? is it safe to be on them for just a moment?

 

Every car or truck has a Rev limiter unless you take it off but it's an fda requirement or whatever and if your on it for a minute it's fine but wouldn't push it too often or hit it there is no need to get rpms that high

 

Yeah that's true... But what if ur in the dunes and u wanna make a nice clean donuts and have to hit that limiter just to achieve an average donut

 

Must not be doing it right then do you turn off your Trac control before trying donuts it will help alot and wouldn't need to hit it just shift into second at about 6k rpm and you'll be in 3k range and can keep them going

 

"Back in the day" floating valves served as a rev limiter unless you built your own motor. Ive always wondered if the same thing happens to these new motors or if they just wind up until the torque falls off.

 

Wouldn't doubt it with all the new technical cap these days

 

Wait 6k..isn't that red line already? And yes I'll take out the trac control for sure!!

 

I believe so you said rev limiter I say red line during donut and shift to second keeps you at about 3k rpms and your donuts going

 

Yeah... Only way to test it out is just to do it then huh?

 

So I gues being on the red line wouldn't hurt then?

 

What rock lobster said haha don't stay high rpms good way to burn up a motor quick but a couple donuts red line touch rev limiter you'll be fine just watch your rpms or don't do donuts

 

The rev limiter keeps you from screwing up. You'll know when you hit it. It will not rev any higher no matter how hard you floor it. This is nothing new been around for decades.

 

Yup, there's a rev limiter.
