[Gmecm] 7730 Maximum RPM limit

[Ryan Hess]

Hi again,
  
  I'm currently running a northstar on a 7730, using the DIS $a1.   Currently I have the revlimit set to 6500, and it works great, I've hit  it occasionally.  <grin>  However, I will be upgrading  to some better heads soon, which will allow me to rev even higher  without valve float.  7500 seems to be the magic number.   After a rebuilt bottom end (I don't know for sure if I'd go this far...  but want to leave my options open), 8500 would be possible.  Now,  after reading about LT1 computers hiccupping at high rpm, my question  is- has anyone ever tested the "max rpm" the 7730 can handle and/or  have any guesstimates?  How does processor speed compare to other  aftermarket ECM's capable of high RPM?  (eg holley, haltec,  etc)  I assume they run faster processors with more bloated  compiled code, so I wonder if they're in the same place "speed wise".
  
  Ryan
