shift at what RPM's?
I was just wondering at what point everyone hear shifts at on a stock LT1? I don't race very often at all, but was just curious how many RPM's these stock engines can take?

Check on this but I think you should shift around 5800rpm. That would put you shifting just past you peak power on your stock motor.
