V10 Tach Red Line

I now have a 2002 V10 Motor Home! My tach goes to 6000 but has no Red Line. Checked a couple of pickups in the last RV park and there was no red line on their tachs?

What is the Red Line for the V10 engine?

Thanks for any info you might provide!!!!

Regards Dave Wheeler

Re: V10 Tach Red Line

No redline on mine either. My guess would be that like the speed limiter, there is also an rpm limiter of some sort.

The computer will limit it to about 5300rpm.

Re: V10 Tach Red Line

Held it in second one time to see. It's only a hundred rpm or less, more than the factory shift point so it's nothing to worry about. Like the factory speed limiter at 85. Way to low. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
