Default HPPIII???

I have a 1999 Camaro SS with a few mods... but i'm always bumping my rev limiter i have it set at 6300r's and my car seems to wanna pull higher than that but i don't want to go ne higher cuz i'm worried about bending a rod. So for ya'll that know more do u think it's ok if i bump my limiter to 64 or 6500r's? I have not done ne thing internally to my engine just bolt on power...

If the springs are stock.. don't touch the rev lim or shift points! you may notice a gain at first.. but long run not worth it... I know...
