There is a calculator for download here at SimV that can calculate speeds, distances, fuel weights, etc for your flight just by typing in numbers (like a regular calculator). You can find it in the utilities section.
As for the speed, the "governor" is set by the airframe and the engine capacity. If the aircraft won't go over 600 mph, it probably isn't designed to.

I thought knots x 1.15 = mph.
