according to the numbers that cam is suppose to make power up to 5500 so i see no need to spin the motor any higher than that....

5500 sounds like my max. I don't really like turning a stock motor very much... Thank's Reggie.

UPDATE!!

Tomorrow (Wednesday) is going to be a big day! I will be getting all my Plastigage and break-in lube and oil from Summit Racing at about 5 O'clock. Then, it will be time to get this thing on the motor stand. I have the pistons ringed and ready, block is ready to go besides paint, and hopefully it will be short-blocked by the end of the day tomorrow. (I get off work at 6p.m.) Lots of pics to come so check back often tomorrow evening and see my progress!

I'm already starting to get nervous...

You're getting me excited even! I can't wait to see the thing put together and that nice looking intake on there.

We just sent our 350 off to get bored, so we're right behind you friend! Good luck and get some pics!
