i've revved her over 7000 atleast a 100 times she still purrs like a kitten
hgallegos915 had a friend once ....and his ZE dropped a valve from over revving .....who know how high it was over revved but that must mean all of them are like that one

Every engine is different, for example i had 2 or 3 diff KLZE and dropped valves in every single one, not going over 7,000. But my friends probe i put the ZE in has never dropped a valve, and its been over 1-1/2 years and he has hit the limiter several times and that car sees 7,000 Rpms alot.hgallegos915 wrote:was it hard to change the k8 valove train? did u just change springs? or evrything? dayum.. u think its safe to go 6500? what does a dropped valve sound like? my engine sometimes ricks but rarely, runs good tho. its kl01 cams tho... isnt the drop valves in the kl31 cammed ze?
Not really, if you want to you can, it's the driver's choice if they wish to push it into redline or not. Some people do 7200 at the drag strip. It leave it open to drivers, but it's their responsibility, so don't come crying cause you broke a motor reving it to 7800mxmaz wrote:Damn why would they set the rev limiter so high when the engine cant handle anywhere near that? Its pointless.
In my gsr(integra that is), its impossible to over rev the engine unless i redline a gear then accidentally downshift.
I have revved & driven over 7k rpm probly around 50 times & my ze has lasted about 15-20k miles
