I always thought that the v10 was a more stable configuration and could therefore rev more...and the v8 causes major vibrations, so revs cant be that high..!!
So how come the v8 revs more than the v10?? anyone got ne ideas?

Less mass to rotate, less stresses on the components, higher revs. Plus frictional effects will be less because of less components.
They will also run cooler - less cylinders, less power, less heat
