Redline for a B20F? 140-160

Hey guys,
Don't forget the floating valves. Double valve springs are a must for over 6 grand rpms. I have been using them and a IPD street cam for 25 years, never had a problem related to frequent shifting at 6500 on this balanced and blueprinted street engine. Although beyond 6500 there is not much power to take advantage of. I have heard of pushrods losing a valve to the float effect.
