It's all relative Brent. Take the same quality of build and materials on those motors and apply it to a shorter stroke engine and it will out rev them every time. Take that to "Barry" and see what he says

"An over-square engine configuration is ideal for high-rpm horsepower--it's how Formula 1 engines rev to seemingly impossible plateaus of 13,000-plus rpm--because the shorter stroke minimizes the maximum piston speed. That reduces power-robbing friction and heat, while also reducing stress on the crankshaft."

Pretty standard comment when you start looking at what's out there on the subject.
