J jimmy New member Jun 29, 2009 #1 I've got a 1997 Cadillac STS with a Northstar V8. Its had no major engine repairs. How fast will it go under good conditions? (Note: the speedometer goes to 160 mph)

S Sexy New member Jun 29, 2009 #2 Assuming that its a 32 valve STS with 300 horses I'd put it at around 170mph+.
T Tinklerhomer New member Jun 29, 2009 #3 it might reach 175-180mph assuming its a 32v v8 with around 300bhp
K Kenny New member Jun 29, 2009 #4 The speed on the odometer does not reflect it's top speed. The governor cuts off power at 120 mph on that car. Even if the governor were bypassed with a programmer, it is aerodynamically impossible for that car to break 140MPH
