Default What is the safe RPM range for a 434 Chevy engine

Need to know how much to turn a high compression 434 chevy engine.
I've been shifting at 6500 RPM and everything seems to be working great. I know there is more horsepower in turning more RPMS however since the engine is a stroker with long stroke I'm thinking maybe it would be better to shift at lower RPM's and let the torque from the engine work.
I'm using a turbo 350 transmission without a transbrake to compete in the no electronics class.
