    hmmmm, your probably right, i haven't done a blown chevy before so i'm too sure on whats it's limits are. There is also a big diffrence between this which will be carburated with no intercooler and a newer car which has an intercooler and efi. Don't worry though, i'm including a wideband oxygen sensor and afr gauge in my build up.

    You could swap the 327 heads for some later, smog heads with big chambers and lower the CR to stand more boost.
    I had a turbo 2.3 Mustang that had 9.0 comp. and 8# boost, when the limiter valve was disconnected it made 11#, ran like a raped ape for a year or so till a cold weather startup tore the cam out of it. Bummer!
