So it's been 6 years since the last post here...

Any more thoughts on increasing redline? I am looking to get billet oil pump gears installed along with the lightest flywheel I can find. Not necessarily looking to bounce 8K+ RPMS regularly; maybe just some shifting above 7500 RPMs on the track occasionally.

From basic research, it appears that after the oil pump gears, the VVEL valve train is the limiting factor for RPMs. Anyone have additional info or thoughts on the matter?
