Valvetrain Power Loss

the only way your gears play a factor in over revving is if you shifted into a wrong gear, missing a shift and revving the bejesus out of it in nuetral is not a factor of your final drive.

long story short--keep your 4.10's.

as for your cam and springs, i run .542 lift on .550 springs and it revs cleanly to 6k. i would not try to go to much further than that with ped rockers.

your stock rev limiter is set at 6200, revving to that may achieve mild float but nothing to drastic. if you keep the R's down you will be ok.

as for doing the good ol 4-2 shift(aka the "money shift") that is a whole nother story.

my car doesn't have the limiter...... it would hold until it came apart...it has went past 6200 before.... yeah i had been having a clutch problem on the 2-3 shift, just wouldn't go in...... i am working on that....but this was racing the car having the problem at the track so i was shifting it hard.....The rev limiter was supposed to be programmed into my chip at 6k, but they didn't do it....2 reburns and it still isn't right I have and MSD 6AL going on soon, that will cure the overrev problem..... I have been doing stuff to the car without all supporting mods for a few years, i have decided from now on though if i do something it will have all supporting mods go on at the same time...

thanks again for help so far man.... if i have any more questions i will post them up....
