I need to know who much is the safest you can rev the B18c GSR engine with stock internals.

The engine is OBD1 and JDM

I have the same motor.. it's called a SiR(B18C), not GSR (B18C1). Just look at the redline.. there's no need to go past 8,000 anyway.

ive taken mine up to 8400 before.........theres NO power at that high of rpm. ALso, when i had my car on the dyno, i had them take it to 8200...which seemed to be fine. But I personally dont like revving anything past 8000

stock cams and stock valvetrain.. peaks around 7400-7600.. dies after that.. so the stock 8100 revlimit is good enought.

aftermarket cams and stock valvetrain.. wouldnt rev it anymore than 8300-8400 ocasionally.

if you wanna rev it.. get some dual valve springs. i bought the Portflow valve train kit which uses itr outer springs, portflow inners and portflow titanium retainers. good for 9500rpm. ill have my hondata rev limit set to 8800rpm.

The stock ITR redline is 8400 RPM, with approximately 8500 RPM fuel cut.

Unless you have cams that make power up there. On a stock GSR I wouldn't rev past 8200, or whatever the redline is, unless you have cams that make power past that point plus upgraded valvesprings/retainers.

I rev my stock b18c1 block to 8,500, complements of hondata. Of course my head is not stock(i.e. cams, springs, retainers) The STOCK head on a b18c1 should not see anymore then 8k. I wouldn't push the stock block past 8800. of course if the motor is stock anyway, the is no need to rev it any higher then 8k, it makes peak power around 7800 or so, and you'll just lose power if you go any higher, and then probably float a valve anyway...
