It'll hold a big RPM dump, but you need to slip it otherwise the car will bog, that is where the damage comes...

Not crazy high, but it also matters what tire, gear, and how heavy the car is.

As hard as your 10-bolt allows you to...

If I remember correctly, shifting your stock internal LS1 at 5500 rpms should be optimum. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Why are you running A4 gears in your M6?

Good question...
5500 should do you well (according to your stock gauge). Stock tach is off by about 200 or so.

You can launch as hard as you want but the stock stuff was not meant for repetative hard launches

Are you asking how well a ZO6(C5?) clutch, not the rest of the car, will hold up to clutch dumps.
