Depends a little on power level and the quality of the crank itself. If it is a 4340 center counterweighted crank with properly matched components it should be fine at 8000, if the right parts are used and the supporting oiling is in place 9000 would be achievable.

7500rpm with 4.1 stroke will be around 5125 fps piston speed
with quality bearings,assembly and premium parts it should have no problem spinning that.
