I have my shift light set for like 5500 just to leave me some room for error. Do you shift higher then that? or is that a good shift point while running hard.

assuming yours is stock, i would set your light to about 6100. atleast 6k even.

With a stock cam, I was shifting at 6000, with the rev limiter to about 6300 to give myself some room for error.

I shift at 6700, limiter set at 7k. When I was stock, I was shifting at 6k rpms, rev limiter at 6200.

5500-5800

with stock cam and stock tune set your shift light at 5800 so by the time you shift you will be at 6100 then shift a lil afte the shift light on all the other shifts

shiftlites at 6500 limiters at 6800 gonna try 6600 shiftlite and 6900 limiter soon to see if i benifit any, my cam peaks at 6400 and drops off maybe 10hp to 6800

Actally stock cam cars build peak power at 5200 rpms. After that they begin to run out of breath. Just shift your car at 5800 rpms. The only reason people try to shift right at the rev limiter is to land in a higher rpm band...MOST of the races 200+/- rpms isnt going to win/lose a race...

Stock internals stock exhaust manifolds with 74,000 miles. My shift light is set on 5,800 with stock 6,200 rev limiter.
Might move it to 6,000 when I put on Headers and Dual Exhaust, although I bet the valve springs are worn out....
