Boosted 383. What to set for red line.

ls6, 383, 918 springs, hardened push rods, 8.7:1 comp, stock heads and rockers, stock ls6 cam, 10 psi boost. Set now at 6900. Is that alright. Did some pulls and pulled good throughout w/ no noticeable float. Advise.

Do you have any dyno graphs? The redline should be a 100 RPMs or so after peak rwhp is made. No point is revving higher is the power is starting to drop off.

sadly no, my car is very wide and only 6" of each tire made contact on the dyno wheel so on the full pulls it just spun. We went out and did the full pulls driving it.
