I'd probably try to do this once and probably throw a piston through the hood.

people have been turning these motors to 7K for a long time. It all boils down to how you drive it. Also, u dont need to turn one to 7K to make great power. Just all in what u want it to do. If he feels it best to go to 7K thin by all means turn that beast loose lol.

Very nice for a 5.3L. A TBSS intake or if you can, a LSXRT 102mm intake would be very nice on your set up.
