My question about this possible engine being built mainly involves what would be the possible limits of what this engine could handle... I know that the way you build these hybrid engines ultimately determines how far they can be pushed. For instance, the ARP hardware, mainly stock build can generally handle about 8,000rpms safely, whereas the all-stock hardware build can handle only what the stock rev-limit of the LS/B20 is, safely...

I was wondering about building one of these engines with Darton sleeves, Eagle rods, and CP high compression pistons and all ACL bearings and ARP hardware throughout it, and doing a full balance and blueprint on the engine. What could be the possible ''safe'' redline, and/or ''safe'' amount of nitrous tuning that could be run on it?

I thought about how far i want to push the engine, and my guess is that a redline of ~9,000rpms and about a 100shot of nitrous would be okay to run on this fully built setup... But im not sure. My question is, once again, how far would i be able to probably push this motor and not have it all explode in my face...?
