i would say shift @ 6400-6500 and set the limiter to 6700. usually people shift around 300-400 past peak power.

my shift light is set at 6200 i believe (maybe 6300), so im guessing i shift closer to 6500. im probably going to set it down a little lower though.

youre might be a little different though since youre an auto

oh, i also have a MTI C2 cam...which is the same except its .581/.581 instead of .563

You really feel comfortable shifting at 6500? I'm assuming your car could handle it, or you'd be at the shop. Just seems a little high....maybe I don't have the ***** to take it that high. Of course, my Z has never been healthy. It may be a different story when I get it back tomorrow or Tuesday.

i dont always take it that high. the shift light is at 6200 or 6300, and im not the fastest shifter around, so i probably shift close to 6500 sometimes. never had a problem yet of course the springs, retainers, pushrods, etc. are all upgraded too
