Default STock valve springs? Good safely to what rpm?

I know I need to do aftermarket valve springs but as for right now how high can I rev this thing safely w/o danger of valvefloat. I'm supercharged btw.

thanks

there is no reason to rev high because even with the blower you should still be peaking at under 6k.
