I'm looking for a Bosche rev limiting rotor for my 914 2.0. I recall there was one that was either 6300 or 6500 rpm. Does anyone know where to find them and what the part number is?

I imagine Pelicanparts have them.
Even in race trim the type 4 runs out of torque at 5800rpm. 63-6500rpm will require dual springs, HD valvetrain, balanced engine, etc.

Do not use these rotors as a shift indicator, loading and unloading the engine with a rev-limiter will destroy your bearings, etc in short order if you use it this way.
A rev-limiter is the lesser of two evils, a last ditch protection device.
