Which Thunder Cam do you have? They seem to list more than one on their webpage. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> What LSA? GTP heads?

Agree with paul on it and it should be shifted at 6400-6500 rpms.

I have Thunder 224 112 LSA cam and GTP stage II heads, I shift at 6600 RPM with the rev limiter set at 6800 RPM's and the cam carries all the way thru. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

This is very close to the setup I'm building now. I've run it through a drag sim letting the computer pick the best shift points and it likes 6550 for both shifts
