Here are some more information for Plates Alum:

Perforated plate is an industrial product with numerous practical uses. Its production is simple and complex at the same time, simply to say you punch holes in a raw metal plate just doesn't do it justice. Metal plate was first perforated or punched back in the 1870's in Carbondale, Pennsylvania by an inventor and entrepreneur by the name of Eli Hendrick. He conceived the idea to punch multiple holes simultaneously in the raw metal plate as a means of speeding production versus the process of drilling holes individually which was both time consuming, costly, and overall impractical. This idea of punching or perforating the plate revolutionized the production of perforated metal products.
Perforated plate is distinguished from a perforated sheet by nothing more than the thickness of the material, exactly at what thickness is probably no more than a matter of opinion. It is fair to say that once the raw material resists flexibility is considered more of a plate than a sheet. Plate can be perforated using a standard punching process, that is, a punch and die, in material up to 1 inch thickness. Depending on the metal being used, plate of this thickness or larger can also be perforated using a laser, a cutting torch, or a plasma torch.
One of the most popular patterns for standard perforated plate would be a staggered perforation of round holes. This pattern is popular for a few reasons. It provides strength and a large open area which is ideal for sifting and separating particles of different sizes. The round hole on staggered pattern is also aesthetically pleasing to the eye as well, of course this would only matter in an application where the plate would be visible. Other patterns include a straight layout where the holes are in alignment both vertically and horizontally on the plate. Both the staggered and straight pattern can feature a variety of different hole shapes and sizes. Shapes include the standard square and rectangle as well as a hex shape, oval, and slot. Custom hole shapes can also be produced for various reasons through the use of a specially designed tool.
The raw material is the next variable in the production and use of perforated plate. Although mild steel is one of the most popular choices for perforating, stainless and aluminum are also used. Heat treated steel is also a popular choice. Heat treating can be applied after the perforating process is complete to ease the hole punching process, but it is not completely out of the question to perforate a pre-hardened plate. Another option is a rubber coated plate. These steel plates are adhered with a dense rubber coating on one side of the plate. This rubber coating can provide cushioning for certain applications.
The strength and durability of these perforated plate products make them ideal for use in many harsh industrial environments. A fine example is the mining industry where coal, stone, and other matter need to be separated or screened based on size. These shakers, as they are sometimes called, are good examples of the harsh, abrasive environment that a perforated plate may be subjected to. Some shaker applications require the use of rubber-coated perforated plate to lessen the deterioration of the product. Plate can also serve as an aesthetic product where strength and durability are important. As our world continues to evolve, sometimes for the worse, security becomes a more predominant feature in modern buildings and renovations. An example of this would be a perforated security screen which would be pleasing to the eyes while providing a secure solution to an un-secure window or door. If the plate or screen were to be exposed to outdoor elements, then an aluminum or stainless steel plate would be desirable. As a matter of fact, perforated aluminum and stainless plate continue to grow in popularity in the ever-changing world of building architecture. Overall, perforated plate can provide solutions to a wide variety of complex and simple scenarios.
Chet is a 16+ year employee of Hendrick Manufacturing Company, a leader in producing perforated plate for the mining and aggregate industry. Hendrick Manufacturing Co. has produced perforated steel plate as well as a variety of other metals continuously in Carbondale, Pennsylvania since 1876.

How high will a Ford 289 rev safely for racing?
I have been told the Ford 289 will rev higher then other small block Ford V8's. Mine is a rebuilt 1967 289 with a hydrolic race cam, 30 over 11 to 1 pistons, Moly rings, alum. rods and a cast crank. Heads are stock castings , ported with a three angle valve job, duel springs, heavy duty retainers, roller rockers & stud girdles, moly push rods and guide plates.
The weak link in your chain is the main caps. The 289 is a 2 bolt main block. I had my 347 stroker up to 6000RPM a few times over about 600 miles and when I pulled off the main caps, you could see where they were "dancing" up and down on the block and the two surfaces were compromised. This was with ARP main studs (yes torqued properly).
The solution for your bottom end (if you stick with this block) is a main girdle...one like this http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=TFS%2D51500700&autoview=sku
The girdle will actually "twist" the block a little so it needs to be line honed by a machine shop.
Another limiting factor (only considering rev's) in your case is the hydraulic lifters. If your only concern was more revs then look into solid lifters and a different cam. Do you have hardened push rods?
If you post the specs on your cam I could give you an idea of how high it will safely rev. Duration, lift, lobe separation, etc.
