And it would be illegal in most states of australia.

seagull, I can't understand what you are asking.

You might want to check these two sites though;

Wes what i was trying to get across is the rpm these motors can do ( so I was told ) big rpm 13000 ?? I have not read up on them , there very fast ! seagull

I would be sceptical of the 13,000rpm. It is a family car engine.

I had a quick surf of the net, this is apparently a dyno plot of the engine.

they rev to about 8 grand or so, but they get there very quickly. whoever told you 13,000 rpm for any stock non motorbike motor is on drugs. :)

no it was the dyno chart ! mmm but took a honda R thing for a drive and that does 13 grand !
