Default What is a good shift point?

my combo is in the sig. i really dont like to shift out at more then 7k but this new motor feels like it still wants to keep pulling and doesn't fall on it's face. right now i have my limiter at 7100 and i can hit it easy. what are some of you guys with similar combos shifting out at?

yea, i will be going to the dyno as soon as i can get the tune as close as possible without it. then its off to the dyno. i just pulled the pushrods out and found a slight bend in one. i seriously need to get the stock stuff out of there to reliably get 7K out of it again.

Dyno is the only way you can find out the power band.
