What do you rev this to? Had you had any problems with valves stretching?

I noticed they're adjustable instead of HLA's, is that for reliability?

Means tolerances can be set properly, so you can have a bigger cam and/or higher revs - like a solid lifter setup on a v8

bigger lift, ramp rate, can rev harder and nothing can bleed out

i wouldnt push it past 7 imo, its like trying to make a big block rev hard, wont happen.
no point reving past a set point if nm and kw drop way off

Who said anything about 1000rwhp? Lol Edit my bad, it's going to be pretty epic!
We were having troubles with stretching valves past 6500rpm.

yep im aiming for 1000rw hp , its possible. i think rod in wa is making similar power?
mine was making peak power around 6k on last tune (19psi) and should still be pretty close to that on 30+psi.
its a drag car but i still want it reliable, dont want to hurt an engine everytime i race it, revs kill anything.
its hitting the rollers this friday, hopefully all goes well
fingers crossed

i think the 28 spline axles may be the only things breaking in the near future
once i get some rubber under the rear im aiming for 8.3s or so, guess it all comes down to how much weight i get out of the car with the chassis build
