LS3 Rev limit your thoughts

[MADWHIP]

Hi everyone,
Just wondering what other tuners regard as safe to rev a LS3 to. I have a 2010 ss/rs manual Camaro at work and the cam that's in it is still making power up to the 6400 limit. The car has 10,000km on the clock and is in very good condition. It's a high lift cam with springs to suit there are no other internal mods. I would like to get 350kwatw for the owner as he is a bit of a numbers man.
Cheers

Stock limit on a '12 is 6600, extreme is 6700 IIRC.

Just saying mine has been reving to 7k+ for a while. ARP rod bolts tho.

I had an LS376/480 with aftermarket valve springs and ARP rod bolts that was installed in a car I built. The rev limit was raised to 7,000 after which I drastically retarded timing to provide a soft rev limit and then cut fuel at 7,200. Sold it with about 15,000 mostly street miles including several hundred road race miles and perhaps 15 - 1/4 mile passes. Quickest 1/4 mile was 9.94 at 141.5 MPH. There have been no reliability problems, at least so far.

^ Car must've weighed like < 2500lbs to run a quarter that fast with around 500 horsepower lol.

Been to 7500 more times than I can count on stock short L92 ( same short as LS3 ) with no issues. These things spin if you can control the valves your good to go 7K safely imo

Same deal with an LS1 I built but I did Katech rod bolts in that one. 7000RPM at least once per day for 3 years, sold it, still running stronger than ever 3 years later and so far as I know the new owner buzzes the hell out of it too. Never had a single issue

Thanks guys

I rev my LS3 to 7000...stock bottom end with a cam and good valvetrain...daily driver, and been revving that high for over 20K miles now.
