Spun that needle around pretty good. 
It'd be cool if that stock tach needle was spinning too.

before i improved the trottle cable range - 4000 rpm seemed to be where the power peaked at - but now that i have more throttle range ( maybe 75% ) - it seems that 5000 rpm is the shift point. i wonder where the shift point will be once i got my entire throttle range available ??
Probably be at 5500 if your running a stockish cam.
Looks good! You have much more power available to you... trust me.

Did you hit 100? with the shift @ 60?
yes - 4th is good for 100 on the speedo.
note: i am running on 195x60x15's all around.
