Sucks moving from Pure Stock to Stock..
Both engines SBC and LT1 were originally designed for under 7000 rpm.
With stock stuff...

Prepped Pinks and LT1 rods seem to be ok to 7200 rpm.
Stockers are mini SuperStock Engines hitting ridiculous RPM.
Above that a lot more costs and still questionable reliability.
Then adding roll bars, reinforced rear ends, replacing harnesses every two years, European priced fuel for racing.

Where is the fun?
