I ran 12.54 @ 107 this way and shift 5600-5800 rpm and it will happily rev to 6000.
I ran it this way for a couple of years and it was fun and quick for a big old street car with lots of torque and a big mid range punch.Brutal from a roll as it hooks and goes while other people spin and go up in smoke.
