I had downloaded the engine specs from that model year on the Four Winns website some years ago. It says 4200-4600 rpm for all the 5.7L except 5.7LGSi ( which is 4600-5000 rpm). |

That's not a roller rocker motor, I wouldn't take it beyond 4800. |

I think your tach is wrong, highly doubt you have been running 5500 and keeping the motor together. |
