8000 rpm is the limit of the 123 Ignition curve and you have to set a value there so I put one in. But my rev limiter is set to kick in at 7000 rpm (it is a soft limiter by the way), so I will never see that 8000 rpm. I wanted a steady climb from 5000 rpm up to limit, so this way there was no need to program another point in the curve at 7000 rpm. I was told from a earlier previous owner that he put in high compression pistons, but I haven't gotten around to verifying it yet. I also have headers. I am getting about 30 hp above stock at the wheel, so I guessing it is probably true. Aluminum flywheel should be in by the weekend. I'm pretty stoked.
