(no doubt ill get told they dont have a rev limiter:doh: )

Not really do damage per say, but you can knock a rocker arm off the shims/valve springs which will give you a fright.

Do a search and you'll see my thread posted on this exact issue in teh problems section.

Basically, its not a good idea anyway. There is little to no power gain unless your engine is built that way. So its pointless.

It’s only a limiter bounce stop rubbing the worry stone :lol:

It will be ok once in a while that’s the idea of it but prolonged something will give out usually money and your wallet

It is worse when you block change un intentionally that’s when you should be scared!
