RPM's

By James - 07/08/2003 1:55:23 PM; IP 67.66.86.183

I couldn't help but notice the RPM range that you said you will be running. Most FEs' do not tolerate RPMs' over 6000 very well for very long. As sure as I say this someone will tell me the story about taking one into the twilight zone with no problems but most of them do not take over that without something checking out on them sooner or later. As a side note, that is one of the reasons that Ford came up with the 429-460 motors. Even the CJ blocks with that have the extra webbing have recorded problems. Ford made the SCJ with a special crank and balancer to go here and had problems. If you have to spin it tighter than that to get what you are wanting then I would look at an engine family that is more suited to this.

This thread, so far...
