Another ls/vtec question...searched though

[ExViTermini]

Can an LS/vtec, w/ eagle rods and je pistons and all that jazz...fully balanced and blueprinted and everything..would it be able to handle 9k RPMS all the time?

[Rev ATARI]

It can handle it fine, but there will be excess ware on the engine that will make it not last as long as other engine that are designed to routinely hit that high of RPM. But its not like your going to kill the engine over night
