That is a boat motor and it is capable of turning WAAAY more than 5500 rpm's. It is governed at that for many reasons, warranty is one of them.
Even detuned, let's see if it will hold up for 15,000 hours.;)
At what rpm do the valves begin to float and the engine start to self destruct? Facts, not opinion. And why only 15,000 hours? Why not 60,000 hours?
There are gas motors that turn in the 9-11,000 range all the time and that's just 800 hp engines. I would think a motor with that hp should turn 10,000 easy.
Show me a gasoline engine with 60,000 hrs on it. That would be like 2,000,000 miles.
I didn't think you could back up your assertion with facts. :B
