P.E.R.F.E.C.T!
how hard do you guys run your engines?i know redline is 3,400?
i try not to get the old girl above 3,000.
i was raised on IH inlines,414,436 and 466's,they topped out at 2250-2600.
this engine has never been touched and has just shy of 200,000 on it.it needs to last me a few more years with no major problems.
guess my question is really should i worry more about turning alot of rpms and hurting the valve train and bottom end,or worry more about the BIG C.
has anybody ever seen an IDI throw a rod?
oh yeah,the turbo is still on the shelf,but it is going on as soon as i can afford to spend the money on banks y-pipe.
