I would say 6600-6800. Any higher and you're going to need some rod bolts, which should get you to like 7000-7200.

But I wouldn't push it past 6800 with that cam.

 

You dont need anymore rpm than your making power at anyway but if you exceed 6500 and blip it to say 6700 it isnt going to all of a sudden let go... it will be accumulative damage I would think that will break things

 

With a 228 228 113 cam I use to rev our old LS1 to 6,950rpm.
Our new LS3 only buzzes to 6,800 on gear changes with the limiter set t 6,900.
