In your case would raise it only a little. I also have mine at a 6400rpm rev limiter

What other mods do you have? I have the same gears and I have been wondering what shift points to use. How are your part throttle shifts? Did they improve any?

go racing and change between runs. I suggest change one gear at a time to see each improvement.
If you don't have any stiffer valve springs I wouldn't suggest changing the rev limiter. Stock is at 6200. The stock cam flatlines at around 5200-5500 anyway. I bumped my shift points up 1mph on the 1-2 shift and 1mph on the 2-3 shift also. Anything higher and it would hit the rev limiter right before it shifted. An aftermarket cam and springs and you could up the shift points with good results I would say. Hope this helps, just my .02

Thanks for all the help. I set my Rev limiter at 6200rpm. I'll leave that alone. Now I need to work on the shift points. I just did a stall (2800) converter and it has really played hell with the shift points. I hit the rev limiter in 2nd-3rd shift. I guess ill need to back that one down.
Thanks,
Thanks,
