I did the same...if I only drove it by feel with the stock cam, I drove it into the rev limiter, especially in third...I guess my reflexes just knew how fast to shift to second and third, but in 3rd and 4th gear, when you can actually begin to feel the power curve, the stock cam pulls right to the stock limiter.
I'm only worried about the bottom end dealing with the RPM a little bit. I've seen way way way less rod bolt problems on the newest Gen 4 engines as compared to the old original Gen 3 engines...my valvetrain should be stable at 7100-7200 RPM, I'm just so happy to be driving the car again, since it sat for almost 4 months this winter.
...I have a set of Katech rod bolts for it...but I don't really want to pull the engine out to change them...and you can't get the oil pan out with the engine in the car.
