But wound for sound I could only achieve 53mph whereas the stock setup would hit 59mph on the same straight stretch.

Ain't scooters great. To launch at a high rpm on a cvt scooter, all you have to change is one spring. In a car, like your old Malibu SS, you have to buy a (relatively) expensive high stall torque converter and pull the tranny to install it.

-Buy the way, if you have a pic of the old Malibu, please post it.
