What are your tunes setting redline at?

What are your tunes setting redline at? Is there any power to be had a little higher in the rpm range with stock springs?

I think I am at 6500 or 6600. no issues yet. 7k on the clock.

I like the power band better with more RPM.

Cool. I'm sure there is some sustained power left on the table a little past 6000.

6800rpm but I set my shift light for 6600rpm. I like this setting, I never bounce off the rev limiter this way

If you check out the LSA crate engine in the GM Performance Parts Catalog they list max RPM at 6600. Even with stock spring it must be safe.

Well my car is an auto and it shifts with all the nannies off at 6000. With them on at 5800. I must need a tune or something. I have always thought it could go a little further. If I paddle shift it 6 grand is the limit cause it hits the rev limiter at 6100.
