how high to spin???
According to TSP's website that cam peaks at 6400 rpm. Add another 400 rpm carry on before your shift point and then set the rev limiter 200 rpm above the shift point. So 7000 rpm.
At least that's how I always I figure it.

when i put my heads on a year or so ago, and had my car tuned at W2W, they spun it to 6,850.
Take into account that i also have a '98 and they have the shitty rod bolts....
