7500? 8000?
I think I will set the limiter to 7777.

Good idea. Because at 7778 they will fail. And not one revolution sooner.
But seriously, I am pretty sure all the second generation 5.0 rods are the same spec as the BOSS rods. I'd have to look it up to check. Those are good for 8K off the showroom floor and live at 700+ hp under boost. Should be good for your stated numbers and revs.
HaHaHaHa!!!Ford balanced it.

And that is why I would balance the rotating assembly if I were to rev past the stock limit.They are not balanced as an assembly. Parts are weighed. Sometimes they are sorted by wt. Cranks may be drilled to achieve wt. But at no point is that actual crank balanced to the exact set of rods and pistons that it will be assembled with. This is a fact, not my opinion.
