I did do a WOT til 5500-6000rpms and no issues. That's where the belt will usually break.
Some good news!

I hope so too. I'm inching day by day to go 7000rpms. The blown engine has gotten me a little cautious.

Just like the saying goes, one step at a time!! Gotta say though, I feel ya on the engine thing. After we did the cam swap and all the other goodies, I was VERY cautious as to how I drove it until I got comfy with it being all torn apart, and put back together.. Now it's 7000-7200 on my WOT pulls.. But not for very long periods.. Heck, even after refreshing the trunnions and springs, was a bit gun shy with her..
