You might want to get some solid lifters for that cam, it does come with hydraulic lifters but the cam has a lot of lift and duration... with the right heads and intake you should see 6000 rpm easily....
BTW, I had this cam - you'll need at least 9.5:1CR to get it running good... I took it out and run a milder cam now. If you're interessted in my RPM cam email me
