Zzp has gone 9k+ on stock valves.
The lsj rods are the strongest production ecotec rods made.
You will be fine. There's a place in Ohio that will cryo treat them for $10 each if you want a littleore piece of mind. I would have the entire rotating assy balanced if your going over 8k though.

NBS - $100-250
valve springs & retainers - $300ish
ATI dampener - $400
Front cover grinding - $ 150 w/o core (zzp)

If you can do the work yourself... this will cost as much as a TVS.
But cams do not provide the same gains of a TVS.

True, but, the. You have a much better foundation. Better flowing. With the cam specs we've been working on with comp, 10-12 psi on a 2.6" m62 should be attainable (with head port and full exh of course) Bringing the efficiency way up.
[edit: prolly more like 12-14 with the ati]

darton sleeves are beyond over kill a zzp block will suffice much cheaper and not to mention you can do a 2.4 or a 2.1 out of one block
