I have to agree with FF88 on this. The LE5 got an increased redline but that was one of the couple of items specially designed for this NA engine to help get more power from it. When they made the LSJ engine it maintained the same 6500 fuel shutoff. Now if the new engine is based off the LE5 I could see it possibly going up some, but I defintely don't expect it to be above the Solstice since all the other LE5 engines have a fuel shutoff of 6800 RPM instead of our 7000 RPM.

The changes made to get 2.0L displacement might make the engine rev faster, but I don't think it'll necisarily mean it can rev higher.
