I have a 350 2bolt main that is mostly stock out of a late 70's camaro and i was wondering how high i could spin it and still be safe?

Late 70's

A late 70's smogger, if it is stock I wouldn't go much past 5500rpm.

Some test data show up to 5800 but, I suspect valve float isn't far off.

Yea, its about 5500 max.. but there is no reason to go past 4500 because the late 70s Camaro 350s have no top end power at all, and you would be faster by shifting at about 4000-4500 rpm
