Ya got good valve springs in there? Wind that beeotch up! I'm shifting at 6800. I understand I have a bit more motor than you, but you're setup should be more than capable of reaching 6500 or so. The cam is only "good" to 6000, but your entire engine might like it better at 6500 instead of 5500. Remember the engine is a system, and everybody gotta play nice together. Heads and intake may take over where the cam leaves off.

Keep us posted!
