It really doesn't surprise me that the 6.7 has enough power to push the truck along at that speed. The one thing they don't mention is gearing, I would think it was changed. It doesn't seem that the engine would turn enough RPM to achieve that speed with stock gearing.

So... obviously, one of the mods was removing the governor and/or speed limiter.

But didn't we already read about this last week or so?
