harden gears aka oil pump ect. springs, valves, ballance shafts.. i believe theres more. but i dont see the point in going over 7500 when all the cams out there drop off up there.

on a N/A car, your doing nothing but revving the **** out of your motor.
On a supercharged car, you will make power up to redline...within reason.
Whats the point of wanting to rev to 8.1k rpms? Just to say you can?

The LSJ makes no power above 6500 on the stock cams... on cams it doesn't make more power just holds it past 6500 with cams.
Look at the power graphs for the 2.2's in the HP thread. They all start loosing power about 5500ish

Even on the TVS the cams don't allow it to push the required air to continue to make power...
The TVS forces the air in... but the cams and valves only allow so much air to be crammed in!

If I could find my dyno sheeet I'd show you that you'd continue to make power past 6.5k ...at least with the mods I had...(I think I hit my max at about 7K w/stock cams)
found it; yup...hit max HP at about 6.8k and stayed over 400 until about 7.3k. I guess maybe my mods could have made the difference specially the adjustable cam gears.
