My hydroller was all done by 6500 it was floating the valves, it is very hard to spring a hyd roller to run up high.
    Like you said 6,500 rpm's.
    They will rpm higher depending on valve weight,retainer weight etc.
    It has nothing to do with the valve springs it has to do with the hyd. roller lifter it's self.
