Agreed get it TUNED on a dyno. Every motor is slightly different and dynos will show U where the power is at based on UR setup.

i would get something like a hondata or even a skunk ecu. but a v-afc would help out during the tuning too. though the hondata would be a awesome power add'r.

for under 300$ your best bet would be to get a hondata. best bang for the buck.

well, SAFELY i would run the stock redline...but to be as safe as possible while still raising the redline significantly, i'd agree with what people said above and say 9k is the max...

rod ratio is definitely the limiting factor here..

you could pull it to 9,500k and call it good and not have to worry about it. But those stage1 cams do not make power that high, so really there is no need to rev that high. When you get it on a dyno see where the cams make their peak power at(or where you have it tuned at) and then set the rev limiter behind that some, this way you can get to your peak power and go a little farther, but when you shift you will be closer to your good powerband...this is just my 2 cnets though.
