b16 tranny in LS-T.... How much rpm to not shift into 5th?
I just recently bought a b16 cable tranny for my Ls turbo. However, the ******* sold it to me with no 5th gear! first through fourth are flawless, and since this is a drag only car, I never go on the freeway. My question is, what rpm do I have to raise my redline to (with a built valvetrain and type-r oil pump of course) to not have to shift into fifth in the 1/4 mile? With my LS tranny I ended up at 120 mph at the end of the 1/4 mile. I run 24.5" slicks in my setup...
anyone have any ideas?

8K rpm for 24.5's trapping 120mph with S1/J1 gears.
