I watched Johnny (random-strike) and Dustin (turbohf) on the dyno with their b18a (LS) engines and right at 5,000 rpms the power dropped like a rock. I'm not sure if the b18b1 engines are any different, maybe it was just the older LS motors, but I see no reason to rev that high on a stock motor if your not making power up there.
I rev my stock Z6 to 7,000 rpms (fuel cut at 7300) even though Josh (Turbo90Accord4DR) and Bill (chevy) say I am a ----- because I don't rev higher haha. I just don't see a reason to rev higher when I am not making anymore power. I guess by revving a little higher, when I shift my rpms won't drop as much and be closer to my powerband, but shifting at 7k is working well for me. I figure it's a little easier on my motor anyways.
Now if I ever had an LS block, the first thing I would do is slap a vtec head on it. If you build it properly you should have no problems revving the LS block high, just like Josh said, he, Jeff, and Dustin all rev the ---- out of their ls/vtec motors.

I see no reason to rev a stock d15b2 to 7400 rpms...
Can anybody explain why you would want to?
