After you build, I would suggest to go to a dyno, pay for a couple of pulls to see where your power band is, People think that just because the revs are still climbing past 6000 that they are making power...Wrong, spinning the motor for nothing, If no dyno is not accessible then go to the track, keep tabs on your MPH not ET, change your shift points until MPH drops, and that will be your particular shift point...
These people aren't too smart either...shifting 800 rpms after your peak power should be noticeably slower, i've played around with my shift points and shift right around 6400-6500 RPMS now (good ignition system in it now so my graph, while somewhat accurate for power and curve is probably a little low). I've tried shifting as high as 6800-6900 and the car didnt like it at all so i pulled them back down.
