first time at the track shifted ~6800 since the stock intake makes no power above that.

got curious, upped my shift to ~ 7300 and picked up 3 mph. So since then I shift at that rpm. But at that rpm I would be more comfortable with good oil pump gears and an ATI harmonic damper. But since I don't really race that much...meh.

+1 on 7,300 with the stock intake.

Damper is easy enough to do and good insurance.

7300 - 7500. Car is still pulling pretty hard which makes it easy to go north of 7300.
