This is our shop 5th gen, we're finishing up the install of the new engine just in time for TX2K down here in houston at peitz performance tuning. Once everything is broken in it'll safely turn 7500+

The bottoms of the old sbc's were fine to 7k to. Hell some of the more hipo ones(327/365, 302's, 350 lt1) would run 8k. Sad reality is their oil pumps were actually more efficient at high rpm than ls stuff. Sbe Ls stuff good to atleast 7500. I have seen some guys run higher. Limiter on my bolt on ls6 is at 7300 now. Lazer and i bumped it up from 7k because it hit 7k so easy.
