    Revving to 7200

    How bad for the willy engine?

    It's ok!

    With good re maping, you dont have any problem.

    With a steel crank yes, other wise no, the crack wasn't designed to rev

    but ballcrushers loved it

    Afriend of mine has rev limit 8200 now and we are going dor 9500rpm!

    With 8200rpm rev limit, one year now, we dont have any problem.

    8200 On a 2.0L willy engine

    Must be modded to run that crazy rpm?, Maxi rally cars used to run 8500 and they had uprated everything.

    Whats the limit on a standard crank then?

    Of course we hace balanced the crank before at 10.000 rpm.

    I think for a std crank, 7500 is fine...

    My crank has been balanced.

    Problem is not the crank...
    Crank is fine.
    Problem will be piston speed and the mass you are trying to move.

    Piston speed of F7P @ 8200 = 22,7 m/s
    Piston speed af F7R @ 7500 = 23,3 m/s

    Piston speed of F7R @ 8500 = 25,4 m/s
    Which is quite a lot whith the amount of mass being thrown around.

    Hope my calculations are right. Did them a long time ago when bored!

    So what is it at 7200 on an F7R?


    Is 25.4 m/s too fast?
