Information obtained from rcdb.com:
Montu is an inverted steel roller coaster that opened to the public on May 16, 1996. The Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M) custom design has a total length of 3,983 feet, features a 128 foot drop, has seven inversions, and maxes out at 60 mph. The ride lasts approximately 3 minutes. Highest point on the ride is 150 feet. Inversions include 104 ft tall Loop, 60 ft tall Loop, Immelmann, Zero-G Roll, Batwing and Corkscrew. Max g-force is 3.8.
There are three trains, each with 8 rows seating 4 across (32 per train). Running at capacity, Montu can handle just over 1700 riders per hour.
According to rcdb, live crocodiles lived in the area below the turn out of the station until they were later relocated.
At the time it opened, Montu was the longest and tallest inverted coaster in the world. [1]
The park promoted the ride in 1998 as "the Southeast’s largest and fastest inverted roller coaster. The crown jewel of the park’s seven-acre Egypt themed area, Montu’s riders soar through four first-of-a-kind elements, seven inversions and nearly 4,000 feet of track at speeds exceeding 60 miles per hour."
