Unless you are automatic you didnt touch 140 in 4th in a SOHC. 4th gear on the MTX tops out at ~123mph on the SOHC because of the 6k redline. Your speedo must be seriously screwed up.

That being said I have hit 140 once in mine. Was running out of road or may have squeezed a few more mph out of it.
