i have never heard any problems with a tranny spinning too fast...v8 has stock rod bolts and stuff and he spins to 6800....i know my tranny will go, thats just a matter of time and im pretty sure the converter will be able to hold. its a 3200(3400). i have finally come to decide on the F5 on a 112

dude that is as easy as changing u'r plug and wires i would not turn a motor more than 6200 to long before changing rod bolts.
i know their r some people turnning stockers 6400 r 6500 but i would not do it.
rod bolts r the weakest part of this whole motor!
