What rpm are you guys shifting?

1>2_____rpm
2>3_____rpm
3>4_____rpm

If you don't mind, could you fill this out?

I need some help understanding, the "whys" also. Mainly the 2-3 & 3-4

 

1-2 6000
2-3 5900
3-4 5900
that is what i have mine set for but i also have the 4.8.good luck

 

1-2===6300
2-3===6300
3-4===5700

 

On my stock 29" tall Firestones and N/A setup I was:

1>2:6400rpm
2>3:6700rpm ... This was to keep me in 2nd gear through the traps
3>4:6000rpm

3>4 didn't really matter to me as I never really wound out 3rd gear. LOL

 

thank you fellas

 

that is crazy(6700).was that with the stock cam.i was shifting at 6300 but it didn't feel like it was pulling any more. thnx

 

I'd hate to be wrong, but I think he was using that Comp 226.

Quite a bit of duration. So its possible that it made power that high.

 

Nah, that was with my 226cam. It pulled flat to 6700rpm NP, I would lose TQ but the truck went faster staying in 2nd gear than it would shifting into 3rd even though I had more TQ. Weird how that works due to gearing.

This is the dyno sheet before tuning

 

I can't gain rpm for **** in 3rd gear. It'll gain mph, but it'll sit there at 4k rpms forever

 

what cam I HAVE THE COM 216/220 525/532 114 LOPE SEP. IN A STOCK 5.3 WITH ABOUT 6000 MILES ON IT 4.56 GEARS 10" PTC CONVERTER .
