why so high RPMs? American Muscle is suppose to make power at lower RPMs... I don't get the purrpose of 8,000RPMs..... I thought A M bash on tuners for high revving..
plus the old slapper bars, about it, but fun as hell and wild rides.watch some of todays superstocks, many ares till running the older cars as they can. low 10's were an amazing this in 1974, lol, but there wasn;t much changing allowed, and those little 7-9 inch wide hard rubber slicks we ran well, crazy traction loss. When better tires came along then the big blocks could take over, before that the small blocks could truely smoke the bigger engines but had to be light and scream up there RPM's
@Promotionpage It's a small-block. If you have a big-block you don't need to get up to these high RPM's, because a bigger engine produces more torque at a lower RPM than a smaller one. Hope that's a good enough answer for you.
@aminimaleffort Yeah, they can. Cranks can bow and fail too. Hell, cheap shit head bolts will stretch @ 130 ft. lbs. Its fuckin chaos inside an engine at 8,000 R's. and it ain't pretty when they break.. I don't give a shit if anyone denies it.

@bindinglines
you keep reading hot rod magazine, that is not a boosted motor,
you might want to buy a book on assemblying motors if you are having problems
