That RPM and MPH held for about 5 to 7 seconds. At that point the Crank case pressure caused oil to come out the back of the oil pan seal and get on the headers. Saw a puff of smoke in the rear view and smelled burning oil. So at that point I decided to slow down and take her back to the trailer and head home. Not sure what was causing power to halt at 5500 rpm in 4th gear.

      Anyway, here is the video. Hope you enjoy.

      Did you ever figure out the stalled RPM issue?
