I am planning to build a long rod 352 to replace my 327. I am hoping for 450-500hp I want a quick revving motor, and I want to rev it past 6000 occasionally. I am wondering if my cam choice is a decent one for this combo. I would think that so long as I have my rotating assembly balanced I should be able to rev far beyond the 6000 or so red line of the typical 400 because this setup is internally balanced and should put alot less stress on the mains.
