My Raptor shift light is set at 6,400 RPM. The car makes great power at 6,800 RPM, but, for every day playing on the street there is no need to rev the motor that high.

LPE GT2-3 cam and WCCH CNC'd LS1 heads.

Understand we all have modded motors with beefed up valve trains that prevent valve float at higher rpm's.
