what kind of speed are the turbo and procharged guys turning their engines nowadays? I know the Pro-stock and the mid size small block comp guys are up in the upper stratosphere but do the power adders require such RPM also?

You know that is a good question . The new gen racers won`t tell nothing they are as bad as P/S racers . I have a pretty good ear for rpm sounds real high like about 10,000 rpm .
We spun ours to 8600 but we had very small heads that would not flow enough to spin it higher. I know some of the guys run 9500-9600...
We shift at 10,000. Launch anywhere from 8,000 to 9,500 depending on what the track can hold. I have an 11,000 rpm cap that we haven't "tried" yet. Other 4 cylinder 2.0 liter 122 cubic inch guys are probably spinning higher.

Mark, did you use the D3 Heads?
No, SC-1's that flow about 365 @ 800 lift. They were not canted valve at all,just twisted a bit.
Chould you run the D3 in that class?
