31mph on stock size tires was 6250 rpm. I did my best to look up the details on the Moke I was working on and I found two different answers to the max safe RPM for that motor. One site said 6,000 and the other said 6,250. I asked the owner what they wanted and he said to put it up to 6,250.

To reach 35mph you'd need 7,050 rpm on stock size tires. The other option is to increase the tire diameter. 23" tires would change the final gear ratio to get 35mph at 6200 rpm but that adds more stress to the controller.
