Default does my ws6 have a revlimiter?

If I am running through the gears in my ws6 and miss a gear and hit the gas will it bounce off at the redline or will I possibly bend pushrods or something?
noob question im sure but yea

Yes you have a rev limiter. In stock configuration it is set to 6200. If you hit it by just revving it up and not shifting in time, you'll be ok. But if you mis a shift, like going from 2nd back to 1st instead of 3rd, then you can very possibly bend some pushrods from a mechanical over rev.

There is a rev limiter that keeps the motor from over revving... with it being stock with stock internals I wouldnt worry about bending a pushrod unless you go to 1st instead of 3rd, or 2nd instead of 4th.
