Huge displacement 6 cylinder common rail Cummins diesels will rev to 4,000 RPM. Depending on the car most gasoline 4 cylinders will rev close to 10,000 RPM, most 6 cylinders rev to maybe 7,000 depending on displacement, and if you push the average V8 very hard it'll hit 6,000 RPM with stock internals, but I wouldn't try it. Cosworth V8 race engines rev to 20,000 RPM, yes, twenty thousand.
