You need more power and less drag rather than different gearing to make this
happen. The engine in my Sprite will safely rev to 8000rpm but makes less
power than it does at 7000rpm so consequently the car is geared for top speed
a lot less than 8000rpm.

Well I guess you all will cringe on this... 100mph is about 30mph slower
then what Id like to to go... the 4.22 is in now and I can see that its not
going to be enough! going to scout around for a 3.9 (maybe with an LSD),
Also see what we can do with this motor, bring it up around 8000RPM
(currently the MSD has a 7k chip in it) see how well it does!
I can wait to see the responses to a 130mph sprite :)
