yea the 4v would out rev a 3v coz they hav a extra cam on each head. But they are sstill limited to 5k rpm. is this just to keep them at the 260 mark?

After a BPT Custom Genric tune mine sometimes goes to 6, but i don't like it when it does. I tell ya what though, that tune really wakes them up
 , you only need to go to bout 5,500 i reckon is enough for me  When Ford made the BF's they upped the revs on them a bit to produce an extra 10kw. The Barra 220 has 220 kW @ 4750 rpm and the barra 230 has 230 kW @ 5350 rpm so you can go a bit higher, just depends on whether you want to risk it or not i guess. Would love to see how these mods turn out, i reckon these motors have lots of potential but my wallet is not as thick as id like

Nothing in that post is right. Number of cams has nothing to do with rev limits. The 260's, 290's and 302's are limited to 5800 with a 'leeway' to 6000 on the auto models. BOSS315's go to 6500 from factory. The 260's are limited with their lower compression ratio (9.5:1 compared to 10.5:1 to 10.8:1 for the FPV variants) and smaller cams.
