With a stock 4-speed tranny, what the ideal shift point? I have been shifting between 2000-2500rpm, and those who sometimes ride with me say I'm shifting at the wrong time....I'm not sure if I'm shifting wrong and is I'm, when to shift

 

Just so long as your engine isn't lugging after the upshift, it hardly matters. If you're running a stock 305, just upshift by 5000 rpm, although holding first to 5500 shouldn't be a problem, as long as you don't hold it there for more than a second. But it'll be out of breath up there.

 

OK, I don't plan on going that high on the tach. Thanks for the advice.
