Thanks guys
So this particular operator not only brought it up to max power at 6500 RPM but he continued to keep his foot into the throttle until 7425 RPM where the max speed of the dyno shut the dyno down (the dyno printout said MAX SPEED !!! In big red letters), needless to say the bearings in this high dollar engine were hammered #1 rod bearing spun.
