Assuming the parts above are matched properly, the type of cam, heads and manifold should give you a rpm power range....however the best way to tell is with a motor/chassis dyno....I assume you are replacing the lifters and pushrods and springs too?
You don't really shift at max RPM, you want to shift after you have run the motor through it's power curve in it's previous gear...you can probably tell where the curve is by the seat of your pants, but a dyno would be much better. hope that helps.
