    My 6.0L tach doesn't have a redline, it goes to 5000 RPM but there's nothing that shows what the redline is. Is there a rev limiter? I wound it out hard the other day trying to get out of the way of a car coming down on me fast but I don't know how high it went. It may have been over 4000 but I'm not sure...

    The ECM will keep it safe.

    I just worry, since it's a manual and all and I'm still getting used to it. The thing winds out FAST in 1st 2nd and 3rd...

    Well, Shagster, I wouldn't take it much above 2 grand, lest you blow that poor old Furd right up. :D
