A.M. Performance Extra Capacity Baffled Racing Oil Pans

Not sure why you would want to rev that high? There is no extra power being made that high in the revs.

With the right mods you can be making good power all the way to 8k. To come out ahead you simply need to be making more power up top than you would at your usual RPM return point, i.e. if you make more power at 8k than at 5.5k then you have more power under the curve and your new return point would be 6k.

That's true. But in order to make more power in that range will require cams.

While agree that we need more exhaust cam I may have some data that disputes lack of ability to make power above 7500 rpm with stock cams. And our cars with 4.09 rear end benefit greatly from higher redline. Not to mention shifting into even higher power band when you go into next gear. Unless you invest in close ratio tranny gears having higher rpm redline helps with our Grand Canyon tranny gearing.. Short shifting sucks with our stock gearbox.

Drunk again or what? I hate your attitude about half the time. Find a better site and go hang out there, instead of trolling here?

I totally agree.

And Shamu how soon we forget you too where FI. You going to call me out have the balls to say my name. It's not your car. Don't worry about it. I have the money to test the limits and suffer the aftermath as you do to with some of your bogus upgrades. You've been suspended here once I guess you don't learn? Your attitudes does suck! You have no respect for anyone here. IMO it seems as your car and the way you do things is so superior.
