Awesome numbers! There's nothing like having that kind of power in a C5 ragtop! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

If I wanted a drag mostly 7000rpm + motor Id go with a 422 (4.0 crank)

Basically standard stuff ARE puts on their motors I think

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!!!!
Looking at the graph, she pulls all the way to 6500 rpms with a 4.125" Stroke crank. Clearly the rpm loss with a 4.125" Stroke crank is not that much compaired to a 4.000" Stroke crank.
What is your valve train setup? Maybe with a nice top of the line valve train one could push the rpm higher <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
