More than likely yes it can go that fast and at the same time self destruct.

What are the symptoms of a bad intake gasket?
Spray carb cleaner at the gasket. If you hear a change in engine noise or engine speed, you have what is called a vacuum leak.
2000 Mitsubishi galant ran hot and now won't start I was driving down the interstate and the car wouldn't pick up speed.. It slowed down and the engine shut off. What's wrong?
I would suspect you have blown a head gasket. Check for coolant in the oil. A compression test will verify if you indeed have a blown gasket. ==ANOTHER ANSWER== When an engine overheats you run the risk of causing serious damage. You'll need to run a compression test to find out if the head gasket has been blown. Overheating can result in a warped head which causes the gasket to fail. If you have low compression in any of the cylinders but especially any two adjacent cylinders, you will need to pull the head.
How do you know when your engine is blown?
Yoer engine will not provide a regular speed you will start smoking and you car will make a weird sound
What would make a knocking sound in a 1987 Nissan 5 speed transmission?
A seized gear can cause a knocking sound on a 1987 Nissan 5 speed transmission. A blown gasket can also cause this sound.
How do you pull out the engine in need for speed carbon?
only go to hoods in autosculpt, search for blown over, charged or contender
How do you know it's not the gasket and just not the sensor out?
If you think you have a vacuum leak because of a bad gasket, spray the area with carb cleaner while the engine is running. If you have a vacuum leak the engine idle speed will change when you hit the right spot.
Why does your car overheat when running lack power at high speed difficult to start and idle erraticly?
sounds like the timing is wrong.also need to do compression check for blown head gasket or cracked head.
305 gm engine fan belt snapped while driving at high way speed still turns over but timimg sounds off and smoke from the carb when cracking over. Checked timing chain lot's of slack but markings goo?
How hot did it get before you shut down? Overheating an engine can warp a head and end up with a blown head gasket. Run a compression test to check.
How can you loose antifreeze with out any leaks in a 99 cavalier?
Blown head gasket or a leak at speed. Check your oil and make sure it is not coffee colored. Check your exhaust for white smoke. These would help rule out a blown head gasket. also check to make sure the correct radiator cap is installed my early 1999 had a late 1998 cap and it would lose water at speed no visible leak would heat up sometimes and somtimes not. This fixed the problem not overheated in 1 year
What causes antifreeze to overflow into radiator reservoir on a 1990 Honda Civic LX?
If you have excessive bubbles coming from your radiator (remove the radiator cap only when the engine is cold) with the engine running, Then you have a blown head gasket. You may need to increase the idle speed a bit to see the exhaust gasses coming out. Fill the radiator to over full with water. An other cause is: the engine must be able to pull a vacuum on the reservoir hose to return the water to the engine as it cools. I have found that the plastic reservoir cap may have a hole or crack under the cap. Take the cap off with the hoses attached, clean it, then blow on the hose covering the other hose end to see if it leaks. It must not leak. If it does then water can fill the reservoir but not return to the engine.
What could cause a ford aerostar 3.0 engine to lope at idle speed?
Check: 1.- PCV vacum hoses 2.- Engine oil cap looseness. 3.- rocker cover gasket
