Hotcam/Shifting

I am getting ready to send my computer in and have some adjustments made. I am wondering what the guy's with hotcam's are shifting at? I beleive mine is set at 5700. Looking at my dyno graph I think I should have it shift at 6000.
Also what is your A/F ratio at I think mine is a little bit lean ranges about 13.8 to 13.4

Also at what RPM does your HP start to drop?

Hot cam with good heads should shift around 6200 RPM.

AF ratio should be close to 13:1. I would rather be close on the ritcher side than the leaner side.

Re: Hotcam/Shifting

Well by looking at your graph you dont start to drop even when you quit. I say go for around 6200 your still makeing good power at that point. Your abouve 300 from almost 6000 up.
