If I had more balls I'd change the limiter and make it higher. Jake told me the valvetrain is good to 7500. But honestly, the power peaks at just over 6000 and is starting to fall off at 6500, so that's my redline.

Yeah, power falls off with a K8 or 86B after 6500, but not by as much as you lose shifting (at least to my way of thinking). With that setup, I'd wind it out to at least 7 grand.

... but then again I'm famous for breaking stuff. I've got no Pauter rockers, and I often kiss 7000 PRM.

My motto?

Torque it until it snaps or strips, then back it off an eighth of a turn.

Extrapolate what you will. More is more.
