Question Over reving 2002 mustang

I accidently over reved my 2002 mustang up to 7000 rpm when it slipped into 2nd instead of 4th. It seems to be running fine since then but I havnt reely jumped on it because I wanted to find out if I should get it looked at first. What do you think I should do. What could go wrong with the car

Aparrently nothing went wrong, when you over-revved your car. If you say it's running fine since then, I wouldn't worry about it. But I wouldn't let it happen again, or you could end-up with a connecting rod through your block or your base pan, Mike. SCT Tuner. P.S. Welcome to the family.

Welcome aboard... It happens to the best of us. If it's still running, you should be fine.

Invest in a MSD 6 AL box. This will not allow that to happen again. Its just a little insurance for your engine.
