At 5700rpm with 26" tires and 1:1 trans ratio, you'd be doing about 108mph not factoring any torque converter slippage.
Will it not rev above that?

This is a calculator I made so you can adjust several parameters to determine any of the variables in yellow.
You might need to step up to a 28" tire which would give you about 116mph @ 5,700rpm.

It might go higher than that,the new cam is good too 6000 but i havnet had it in long enough to test the rpm's out.Everytime i went to Redline i had something wrong or etc.It should be perfect now because im going back too the priginal saet up.It would peter out at 5500 with the smaller cam but with this Nitrous HP cam it might pull more.If i went to the 28 inch tire you think it would help me run a quicker time in the 1/4.

You will be fine on motor but on the bottle you might be at your rpm limit.
