Chris Note on 8-17-15 I talked to my Iowa BMW mechanic who installed the transmission and he thinks the problem I am describing is more likely a clutch issue. If thid gear was messed up and pop out of gear he thinks it would make a terrible noise or pop versus over rev of the engine.like what I am describing which sounds like the clutch may not be holding at that high of rpm regardless. I have adjusted the clutch according to the book buat am by no means a expert. I may have the fine tuning off and this may not be a issue either way I want any buyer to know this as it surprised the heck out of me. Thanks Chris also I found out the CFO stamp above the engine serial # means that it was compliant with the 1978 emissions in the states of California,Florida and Oregon.I have also verified the carbs on it are stamped 94 40 109 left side and 40 104 right side.
