Re: How to find your redline???



Your combination would probably live at 7500 RPM.
BUT, I'd doubt if the power extends that high. I'd shift at 6800 1st to 2nd
and 6500 after that.
My engine is pretty similar as far as the power producing parts and my best
ET to date was a result of shifting at the above RPM (as opposed to shifting
at 7000!)
