#113584, "RE: Long rod engine.. aka RPM screamer.."
In response to In response to 4

          

First a question: Do longer rods help to reach higher rpm? Seems to me longer rods would have more mass and lead to lower revs. If this is so why don't you just do this to the 2.0 block?

ok, now my concerns.

1) Cams, we have no form of variable valve control and we already start to lose power over 5k rpm. In order to make any power at 12000 rpm you would need one mean nasty set of cams, problem with this is you will have shitty low rpm performance and bad idle.

2) Tranny, I dunno how much on an issue this is, but trannies have a limit too. The automatic tranny is redlined at 6500 rpm, now even if you have a manual, none of the synchronizers are designed to shift at 12k rpm.
