Re: rev limit

Ridenour is right, if you want more rev's you shoud do work to the engine. The quad4 is a good place to start because of the cam setup which will allow for much higher rpm range, but without beefier valve springs you could get fluttering valve issues and smoke your engine. ie the valves will start to stay open longerbecause of the speed they're travelling at and when the piston comes to tdc the two will collide together causing some serious damage.
