I've run this kit up to 385 no problem. Just don't go over 400 or dead baby..

If you don't have a bigger intake yet do it. If you look into the math, the intake of the spree is waaaay too small for that size kit.

350*F max those bores are cast iron, but the pistons are aluminium. Your gonna melt at about 360*f at 400*f your gonna have a rod push its way through the soft piston.

Yeah 380 is when I had a soft seize too. As for the race bores out of Italian areas they can withstand a major amount of blunt trama.
