Indeed. I had a '69 Camaro when I joined the Navy, and even with a 3.08 axle, I drove 90+ MPH through most of Kansas. Before that I ran it flat out going towards Vegas, once I reached the Nevada border out of California. I'll have to go do the math, but I was turning in excess of 4k RPM for a lot of it. And I drove well over 2500 miles.
