The .bin in my '91 305 is 98 MPH with a 4800 RPM limit and the BPSA .bin in the 7427 for '95 G series van is the same. I haven't studied all the .bins on gearhead efi but the few I have looked at all had 98 MPH speed limiters. I'd be interested in seeing what they burned into a cop car prom.
If you have the ECM# and BCC for the 454SS I may be able to find it and see what they did.
that is pretty interesting same speed as the vortecs but the rpms are 1000 lower the vertecs are have hard cut off at 5800 rpm with the black box it can not be set high now if you do a 0411 swap it can be raised or removed

That is not correct. Black box can easily be reved higher. The secondary "rev-limit" is actually the ignition coil dwell being too long at high rpm. I have had the black box running 6,500.

The max for OBD1 is 255 speed,6375 revs. There is quite a lot of adjustability with the only disadvantage of not being able to direct flash,the reason I built a ribbon cable and mounted a ZIF socket to the inside of my glovebox.
