Derek's right Scott, I had no idea you were limiting that thing to 6200. I promise you'll do less damage spinning it a little higher than you will running 400 feet on the rev limiter Seriously, it will be fine, I've seen stock bottom ends spun to 7k and a little beyond on nitrous with no issues. What are you shifting it at?
