Re: Poly Redline

[Donnie Schanz Jr <dcs426@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Look in a Motors Manual and you will find the factory HP and TQ ratings for 
each engine. It will tell you at what rpm each is based. I would safely go 
500 more and you should be fine.If it is not stock,go by what your cam and 
intake are rated at. It does no good to go further than a few hundred rpm 
more from what they are rated, because you make no more power. I would base 
it on either of those things.

Thanks
