Subject: 4.7L V-8 Redline?
IP: Logged

Message:
I just picked up a new 4.7L quad cab today. It's stick shift, yet there's no redline marking on the tachometer nor mention of max engine speed in the owner's manual. Anyone know what the max engine speed spec is?

The 5.2L in my old club cab redlined around 4700. My gut is the 4.7L seems like it might tolerate something higher?

The fuel cutoff is 6000-6200 +/- a few RPM, but the engine is good for at least 7K RPM.
