Get a chip to take out the rev limiter? Do you have an auto, if so you will need to change your shift points. Mine goes to 6000+ with my t-52L8ULUZ2 said:Changing the cam will allow more rpm potential out of it but you are still going to be limited to probably no more than 5500-5600. You really do not need to take it past 6K anyway with the stock stuff since you run into the potential of a lot of problems.
mine is 5spd. you can rev to 6000 stock? What would make mine stop at 5k?sc302 said:Get a chip to take out the rev limiter? Do you have an auto, if so you will need to change your shift points. Mine goes to 6000+ with my t-5
rev limiter could be but that shouldn't kick in until 6200 rpm's. I make power to 5400 rpm on the dyno then it falls off a bit, I don't know what your problem could be. Time for a trip to the tuner IMO.94Silverbullet said:? huh?
Joes95GT said:Your car should rev cleanly up until the limiter. Although it may not make any power past 5800 with your mods, the car should still be able to rev to 6250. It wouldn't be the factory tach because if the tach is off, you would still hit the limiter, but it would hit at 5000 or where ever the tach shows the limiter is. But if your car will flat out not rev past 5000, you have a problem.

yellow1995Cobra said:hmm sounds like you may have a serious problem.. Describe to us exactly what happens when you hit 5k rpms.. Does it "feel" like a rev limiter? And also did it rev fine before the issue with the valve?
BIGTONY26 said:See sig.. I shift it at 5800 on motor and 6k on the bottle.. IF i shift any less it looses mph and et... On the dyno it makes peak power at 5750 rpm on the motor but it does not really loose any meaningfull hp until 6100... My car made good power to 5 k with the stock heads, intake still on it.... Could yours be very lean???? (weak fuel pump, or mismatched/bad MAF?)
yellow1995Cobra said:so your saying it hits 5k and wont rev to 5100? Sounds like valve float to me
Joes95GT said:I couldn't tell you exactly what it is, but I know it's not valve float. If your floating the valves, the car would rev, but wouldn't make power. If the rev's just stop, you have some other type of problem. Have you tried pulling any codes out of it?
