I want to know the nuts and bolts of what is done to a claimed "Legal" Vintage HiPo 289 such as in a GT350 used in Historic Racing to allow it to use a shift point of near 8000 rpm frequently and live. Those that feel qualified please expand on this. Whenever I go to the races it seems like the engines in the GT350's are always in a higher state of tune, turning what seems to be considerably higher RPMs and faster.
