You can't push this engine past 8200 reliably.

Oil pressure is the bottleneck, and can't be solved without a major redesign.

If you're not looking for more than 300-350 whp leave the engine stock. Do your clutch.

If you have a rocker failure at those RPM's, replace with a '14 or later engine.

You need boost or the powerband fails hard after 7400. Even then it's gonna be downhill after 7k.
