i know theres no possible way to get an exact number or anything like that. but i was wondering if you guys could give me an estimate on the rev-limit for a stock sohc zc running an ls chipped ecu...thanks

 

oh yeah and i also forgot to ask...what does happen if you do over rev your motor?

 

KA-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

is that good enough for you? =)

 

nice sound effects

 

i whould say no more then 6200 it mihgt be 7200 but id say 6200 just to be safe , dont over rev it at all or u are asking for major trouble

 

Rev till something scrapes. As soon as you hear metal on metal that will tell you roughly where you can rev to next time. as soon as you rebuild :P

 

6200 damn come on that's nothing. motor is still making power at that point. My built sohc zc with stock valvetrain and a delta 272 regrind sees 8000 everyday. Don't belive the hype that stock valvetrains are weak. They actaully will hold more than people belive. general rule from experince is a 1000 rpm over stock rev limiter is where you can rev on stock valvetrain.

 

ya i'd think a ZC is probably same rev limit as an a6.

 

i rev my stock sohc zc to 7000 thousand every day and no problems ;i sometimes bounce it off of the 7200 rev limiter when im not paying attention
