I rev my current motor to 5,500. My new 4 bolt will rev higher but I do not have the specs yet. I currently do not have a rev limiter in use on the 6AL and am hoping I can set the limiter to only cause the A/C compressor to disengage at 5K while allowing me to keep revving the ignition. That is the hope anyways. I live in Florida where the A/C is used year round. I am bound to forget to turn if off every time I want to have fun.

What level of revs killed your compressor?
Wondering what a safe máximum would be... anyone know?
