Default Rev limit, where to stop

How high do you think I could rev, on a regular basis ,a D16Y7 (99 DX) sohc nonvtec head w/ stock valve train?It's on a D15B2 block. My buddy used to run his D16Y7 head to 9000-9500 rpm all the time. I was thinking 8000-8200 would be ok, but I figured I'd let others who have experience or knowledge give me there input.This is an all-motor project.My mods are listed in my signature. Head has a street/strip cam and i'm running for now a PG-7 89 teg ecu.

Thanks-Jason

put it on the dyno, and see when it stops making power. that would be a good starting point.
