Usable RPM range	Sun, 13 October 2002 15:59

Hi. I'm new here and I have lots of questions. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to figure out the usable RPM range for a particular car. I am currently rebuilding a 1973 Celica ST with an 18-RC. We don't have the infamous 18-RG in Canada and I don't have the budget to import one so I'm trying to squeeze as much power as I can from the one I have. The engine needs a total rebuild so I'm going to balance the rotating assembly, get lighter forged pistons and port the head. Maybe a bigger cam and roller valvetrain sometime in the future. Can I increase the usable RPM range? Is there a maximum piston speed of some kind of "golden rule" for this? How do I figure it out? Thanks. [Report message to a moderator]
