Default Shift light setting

Trying to have a little more fun with my C3. I put a 383 stroker in about 6 months ago, MSD6AL with a limter set at 6000, MSD Tach drive Distributor. Want to be a lot more consistent off the line so I am going to put in the 2 step this weekend, set at 3000. I have Hooker sides with Glass packs, and an M21, and was told a 355 rear. Just ordered a Proform Shift light, and need to know where you think I should set the shift light limit. Her's the Torque and HP. What's your expert opinion?
