What is a safe Rev Limiter?

I searched the threads and concluded that the stock rev limiter is at 6250 rpms. However, I have been convertered to carb and need to know what a safe rev limiter would be?

I currently have a 6000rpm pill in my MSD 6AL box. It actually kicks in right around 5700 rpms. Just above my shift point of 5500 rpm. I'm thinking of getting a 7000 rpm pill, but is that too high? Possibly damgage the motor? I have a stock bottom-end/rotating assembly.

Would a 6500rpm pill be a better choice over the 7000 rpm pill?

I have been converted to Carb. Computer and everything have been trashed. Stock TACH has been disconnected as well as most other gauges except voltage and fuel level. I currently have a 5" AutoMeter Ultra-Lite Tach with shift light/memory. It's hooked directly to the MSD box, therefore I know it is as accurate as it can be. I'm actually about ready to remove the whole instrument cluster and replace with Autometer gauges. Therefore, the only rev limiter I have is with the MSD Pill in the 6AL box. Nothing else is hooked to the motor to "limit" it in any other way. I have aftermarket electric fuel pump, etc, etc.

I would like to have my shift point right at 6,000 as that is where 95% of the stock 302's (that I have seen) stop making power on the dyno. I have to shift at 5500 rpm, which I feel like is slowing me down because I don't think i'm getting the most power @ that shift point. I'm thinking a 64-500rpm MSD pill (or chip, however you want to look at it) would probably be better.

Just didn't know if the 7000rpm limiter could "overspin" the motor. I think the 6000rpm is a little on the safe side, which is fine with me when i'm driving on the street. When I start dragging next season, I hope to shift @6,000 rpm going down the track.
