I replaced the 7000rpm 2.4 liter (peak power at ~5500) in my 240Z with a 3.1 liter stroked L28 that reliably revved to 7200rpm and made peak power at 6500.
No ragerts...
You can have both revs and displacement...

To simply gain a higher rev range, did you essentially just upgrade your bottom end and upgrade your valves / springs and then have it tuned to the rev limit you wanted?
