What is the max. piston velocity?
If I have a fully built bottom and head is there a theoretical max. piston velocity? I will dyno tune my car and see where the power drops off, but I want to make sure I don't over rev it.

Re: What is the max. piston velocity? (stinker504)
check out the link below. I started it because I wanted to switch from an LS cranked 83mm B18C to a B16A cranked 83mm B18C, basically making it into a 83mm B18b. IIRC piston speeds with b16b's are a lot slower then say an LS or LS cranked GSR because of the RS ratio, or maybe it's just the rod length, I cant remember.

Dont think so, isnt it all about the length of the rod and size of the crank. From there you work out the velocity ratio and so forth??

I already know how to calculate piston velocity. That's not the problem. I don't know what the max velocity is.
I just wanted to know if there was a max piston velocity so I can carefully maximize my engine.
If no one knows then maybe someone can tell me what is the max rev on a B16 is so I can reverse engineer my answer for the F series motor?
