    If ur gonna go to 9k, then i suggest u drive it to around 7-8k

    dont let it idle for long, dont use shit fuel and make sure u use running in oil for atleast 1000km and after that use high quality oils

    Just drive it like u normally would, but dont thrash the shit outta it.

    Change cams whenever u like, the motor wont mind it
    He is asking the negative effects of only initially using only ~80% of a motors rpm range, not specifically run-in methods (since he obviously has an idea of the one you had in mind, with the mention of high rpm). Where did you get the 7k-8k figure from? Reasoned calculation or random guess?

    Go and find a decent mechanical engineer because you won't get a very good answer on these forums.

    What motor are we talking about here? If it's a non-vtec, give up. Revving non-vtecs to 9000 is going to make your life a nightmare. If it's a vtec, then the stock cams will still make power to 8000 regardless; so I fail to see the problem
