Actaully i got a question this as well.

We all knwo the mod motrs come out as reving monsters.

However i was told a long time ago taht actaully pushrods are more stable for high revving applications. Dont knwo how or what i was told but kinda curious about this as i dont see why.

I was highly considering using a 351 and making a reing machine
peaks at right about 7,200-7,500 RPM. Now i realize thats some crazy RPM but i will have everythign forged and balanced along with better valvatrain components.

The question is since its gonan be reving liekc razy how will my gas mileage be whe im normally crusing aroudn at 2,500?

Im sure gas goes to **** when im at 7k but thats expected.

This combo will be FI by the way.

Also im thinking im gonan run into lots of vacuum problems how do i go abotu curing this or do i jsut gotta lsoe power steering and brakes or can i make somethign electric instead and maybe keep power steering? or vice versa?

Thanks
