You'll never blow a Cleveland unless you do something real stupid. I use to run one and turned it in excess of 10,000RPM. And the good part is if you get a 4V engine you get the best heads money can buy, they really breath and love big carbs and reving. With a good roller cam, a tunnel ram with a 1050 dom. on top, good exhaust and some decent pistons and Hi-volum oil pump you'd have a screamer.
