shift points Solomon@(LT1 tuning),he done a super job on mine ,I just sent (pcm) back to him to firm up (raise line pressure)I just had my trans gone through and a transgo installed,and told him to leave the shifting stock because I was afraid the shifting would be to harsh,but my 2-3 shifts were not completing till 6300 rpm ,and I was wanting my shift points around 6000 rpm.He done a super job on the tune,the car flat screams.

Yes,I wanted 6000-6100,I just wanted to see what rpm other people with stock bottoms and cc503 were shifting at.

Your going to want 6200-6400rpm shifts with that cam to get the most out of it. Anything below there will be sacrificing a little mph in the quarter. If you don't want to rev it past 6000 or 6100 then the cc503 is a little too much cam for you, I lost 4 mph when I was shifting it too low back when I ran it. I wouldn't worry about shifting it in the 6300ish range so thats what I would shoot for. BTW the stock tach is ~300rpm's off up top so if the tach is reading 6300rpm then your shift points are only at ~6000rpm.

tach deal Yea on the tach deal,my rev was set at 6400 in the tune and shifts at 6000-6100 and 2-3 would bump the rev,but the tach was showing 6200 when it bumped of the rev limit,so I know the tachs are of at least 200rpm,but the pcm really knows whats going on.

shifts I am just trying to keep my shift points at around 6000 for now,because I am still on my stock injectors,I just wanted to know the best shift points for track times when I re-tune for 30#lb injectors in a month or two,thanks for all the input.

When my shift points were way off I was revving out to 6900rpm (via the tach so more like 6600rpm) with the stock injectors. I ran the stock injectors the entire time I had that cam and they were sufficient. Of course some SVO 30's or the like would never hurt.

svos/stock inj. I am glad to hear that,I was scared mine was going to be lean at high rpm,and my tuner said they are ok if they are good injectors and dont lock up,and by the way what were your #s with the cc503?
