I agree, maybe even closer to 6400? I dunno, only way to really tell is to put it on a dyno.

Stock untouched heads? Shorties or Mids or LT's?...there's a couple factors that could decide things but I would say in the 6200-6400rpm range.

Did you dyno it? If so where did it peak at? Maybe call up Ai and ask them they could probaly give you an accurate answer.
