[QUOTE="CD07GT500, post: 16272475, member: 195665"] My car makes peak around 66-6800. I will shift it around 7-7200 with the stock crank. If I had the funds for a nice billet crank along with other combo changes I would shift the car in the 7800 range since I believe the hard limiter is at 8100. I hope you have better luck moving forward but your failures seem to be more of a spec/assembly failure. Thanks for the kind words Ben at MMP put the combo together for me. As far as your failures see below. Reluctor has nothing to do with the heads. Tensioners have nothing to do with heads. In fact they have an easier job than the coyote heads because the oiling system doesn't have CTA phasers which do use oil. Coyote uses the same diameter chains as the GT500. A toasted cam lobe means there was a mechanical problem. The GT500 RFF/Lash adjuster setup is actually more robust than the Coyotes. Titanium retainers are a waste and dependent on aftermarket manufactures to properly engineer. Stock retainers have been proven reliable to over 8000rpm and 130# on the seat One piston had to be recoated why? MMR? Enuff said. Coyote would have also burned two SS exhaust valves given the same conditions. [/QUOTE]
