Big bore = revs

From what I can gather, roller cranks hate being laboured.

Rev that sucker (Stan built it, it can take it).

There's a few things to consider

1. What do you call laboring it?

2. What do call overreving it?

Also what cam, heads, compression etc. all these thing will affect the powerband of the engine and where it does it's best work.

And roller cranks don't tolerate detonation which can be caused by laboring the motor, as 56astro said.
