So not reving it as much will wear it out faster

That may be the series when i receive the package in the mail ill get back to you with more info.

But i wouldn't it be great if the tranz am's came out
Understand what you are say about nasty harmonics etc...however, you do have to look at your torque curve and power curve and say "well not much point in revving beyond where the torque starts to drop off!"

Look forward to hearing about this "new" series...meanwhile don't ignore other opportunities
