I believe f-bodies ordered with z-rated tires also have a speed limiter. Its just at 158mph, not at 115mph.

somebody correct me if i'm wrong.

I know of many brand new F-bodies here, purchased in Canada, that do not have speed govenors. However, they were also ordered with the z-rated tire package.

It makes perfect sense.

I have had my 94 Z speedo pegged MANY times. I am sure I was getting around the 158 mark, but never felt a governer with the stock PCM. It didn't have enough power after 145 to gain very fast though. If there was a governer there I don't think the car could have got there anyway. Maybe someone with the 2.72 gears could though.

She's set up for 1/8th mile racing now so no more of those high speed runs

If there IS one on 'all cars' it's higher than 160-65 for sure..

162 or 163mph was the factory limiter on my friends 99 Anniversary T/A, which I think is what most if not all 94-02 cars got with Z-rated tires.
My old 96 V6 Camaro had the 115-119mph limiter since that was about 3K in 4th gear and the car still had more power.

All LT1/LS1 cars have limiters, all you do is raise it to the max.
Here is Tunercat, setup for my TPI I had at the time, but the LT1 version looks the same,
Fuel Cut Off Speed is the name of the limiter.

Depends on what year your ECM is.
Tunercat is for OBD1, 94-95 and costs $89. LT1 Edit comes in 2 versions, one for OBD1 and one for OBD2. OBD1 is $200 for the expert Version and OBD2 is $550 for the expert version.
Custom Cable is $95.
