UMMMMM ok, wow haha. You have been kinda trying to keep it on the DL but that just knocked your plans wide open sir. valve springs and valves already? sleeves? pistons? rods? cs? damnit... haha. Not much else I can recommend sir.... it seems like you almost got yourself a built block already. I'm only wondering which pistons you got...eight fives?

As far as the 8k redline....I barely use it honestly. I have heard from a few folks that the easiest way to grenade this engine is with high revs (sans fi) so I try to keep it under 8. Even though I beat the crap out of my car, I don't redline it every time and I don't slam gears. I don't think its necessary... thats why my clutch is still perfect and the motor barely burns oil. I may not be the best person to ask if you are wondering how the engine is holding up to abuse.
