Can anyone tell me the max operating rpm of this motor? I just installed a tach and I can't find out anywhere

Re: E70elcte Engine rpm

The factory stated max operating rpm's are between 4500 and 5500. It is rated at 70 hp at 5000. Best to prop that engine to operate in the upper end of this range, or 5500. 4500 is considered "lugging" the engine.
