Re: Safe rev limit on stock LS1 (Tuan Le)
Mine has titanium retainers and am curious if that is enough to raise the rev limiter over stock? Or should I get new springs altogether?
Just curious, why didn't they change out your stock springs when they put in the titanium retainers? :confused:

BTW, my rev limiter is now set at 6500. :D

Re: Safe rev limit on stock LS1 (QuickSilver97)
I have an upgraded valvetrain and cam. I set it to 6800 and my shift light to 6500. Whats suprised me is that with the engine accelerating that fast I have trouble shifting 1st to 2nd during the 300rpm window. I used to shift at 6000 with a 6200 rev limit and never hit the limiter.
At this RPM I'm concerned about my rod bolts. I might put in ARP's this winter.
