Dude, If you redlined in neutral trying to get to 2nd I'll bet you mashed a few pushrods!
:smash:
I'll bet anything that is what you did. I have seen others that had their Dyno's crap out around 5500 only to find out it was bent pushrods. They are very soft. They give out before the valvetrain does. :(
