Actually reving and engine and redlining while not under load is much worse to an engine that while underload. Still nothing that could cause serious damage if you don't do it a lot.
Asks yourself why do engine dyno's simulate a full load condition when breaking them in and dynoing them when they could still make the same calculations with a mininaml load on the engine?
