Ive turned my 6.0 to 7000 several times.. 70mph in 1st and 126mph in 2nd is kinda crazy but it did it. you can feel the power difference between 5k and 7k.. with stock everything it falls fast.

Wow
I'm surprised no one has pushed for 9,000 on stock internals now.
That's why I asked though
Anyone pull past 7300 on oem parts yet?
Anyone over rev and destroy a motor yet?

I really think the limiting factor will be how well your valvetrain is setup. I don't think you can go the budget route with that. Solid lifters, shaft rockers, titanium retainers/valves and perfect geometry etc.
I've wanted to see somebody do this for awhile, so I say go for it! Basically a modern day DZ 302.

Gearheads are all closet nerds
Lets break out the thermodynamic theories! Lol
Hopefully this thread will end up telling someone how to turn 9000 rpm and why we did it that way.

How can you talk about turning 9000rpm on a pushrod engine and not talk about physics? Oh wait, this is the internets.
I'm thinking short skirts will be necessary to keep the weight down. Rocking and scuffing?...yes, but the pistons aren't traveling all that far and the rods/bolts will be happier. F=ma right Jake?
All the IRL, F1 and murdercycle pistons I've seen have short skirts and they turn some serious rpm.
