Check over on nissan club.com there's a number of guys over there that have SAFC-2's installed on their 3.5 Alties. Do a search in the 2002+ Alty section and you'll get plenty of hits on SAFC-2's.

I'd say the rods are probably safe until 7500 RPM realistically but after that you're risking blowing the engine. Be careful.

EDIT: If you were being sarcastic, well, ignore my post!

O i am being very carefull. The stock engine will hold upwards of 400whp, seeing that i won't be exceding the 400hp mark the extra rpms will be ok, maybe not all the 8500 but somthing like 7500-7800. I have the new springs on and the valves will be ok, or at least this is what I am told by my "supplier". his company has turboed the 3.5 alty several times(348whp @ 5.5psi), they made there own kit for the 350(4??@6psi). So I trust him. Plus in the next 6-8 months i might be able to replace the internals. (fingers X'd)
Thanks for the concern man, and your help. If you find anything else I might need, or need to know.
