    More than 65. Less than 70. That's about all I can get you.

    Now see, I'm being optimistic. If a 225 will push it 72-73, a 200 should be able to push it 66-67. I don't think the old carb'd 200 (like a GT200) would push a lower 90's model to that. But I do think a 200 DI motor will push a '98 there if it's setup right.
