I am talking about motors with very large cams, heads ect. even solid rollers.
That's a good question.

I am talking about motors with very large cams, heads ect. even solid rollers. Also on the OBD1 PCM's running up to 7200 RPM's, I have never had one that didn't go past that. Granted is was only a few but I never had one that hit a so called rev limiter....
Yes, on the dyno my horsepower curve was still going up until 6900rpms where it hit a rev limiter. I only want to go to 7200-7300 for a little over rev and plan on shifting@7k if possible thats it. Where do you tune in Texas?

Well, Like I said, I have never had one that stopped at 6900 RPM's, Maybe just lucky?? and the ones that did rev to 7200 kept the fuel curve in line. Yes the fuel will try and maintain the last cell that is commanded and theoretically follow the continues path, How far?? Don't know since these motors did fine up to the 7200 mark..
