You have a much better stroke / bore ratio for RPMs and I ASSUME it is a 6" rod motor which would make the rod ratio killer to. I would bet 6800 to 7000 is a good shift point for you.
Yeah thats screamin. Im not sure yet what the rod length is.. I got 3 big envelopes of receipts and paperwork I still need to go through that came with the car.

But yesterday I just wanted to get the car home safely. I'll rev that sucker up here soon and see how it goes. It does have a high rev kit on it I believe. We'll know soon enough.
