RPM Shifting
 
I am getting my tune adjusted to have my little 5.3 start shifting higher. Just wondering what every one is spinning these things up? I am around 5700 or so as of now.

Here is a link to my set up.

All the info is in my build link. Not trying to sound like a ass wipe by replying back like this but that is why I put the link in the thread. It has everything from head info to my cam spec. :)

I'm shifting 5800 on a stock (other than replaced the 799's with 243's) L33. I don't want to push my luck on 105,xxx miles since it's my DD.

799 AND 243'S are the same head why would you swap them? p.s not trying to high jack

I had a bad valve guide. Head swap was cheaper than stealership repair. Now I have Z06 valve springs if I choose to do a mild cam one of these days.
