Default What lifters for 3800 N/A build?

I just bought some Morel 5315 off a member here and the package showed up with nothing in it. Hopefully Usps will reimburse the $127 I paid for them. I truly don't know the best lifters for my setup. Have and advice? Camaro with T5 and 3800 with ZZP GT1 cam and ported everything. LS3 valve springs. I don't really know what determines shift point just yet, but I'd like to shoot for 6500-6800 RPMs.

the 5315s are a good lifter for very mild builds especially on a 3800. the cam will determine your shift point for the most part idk what the powerband on that cam is like but you generally want to shift a few hundred rpm after the power begins to fall after peak hp. so you will pick the shift points based on what your cam actually wants

Looks like it takes a dump right around 5250 rpm. Should I look for a bigger cam? Anyway to move that powerband some?
