Default whats up with the LS2

C6 LS2s have 10.9:1 compression and C6 LS7s have 11:1:1 compression, why is it that under boost, LS2s are doing fine, but LS7s a re blowing up?
Why is it that the LS2s are handling boost so well with that high of compression. I think the LS2s handle boost better than LS1s (10.1:1) and LS6s (10.5:1).....

where did you hear all ls7's are blowing up?, any FI LSx engine will let go from a bad tune!, but the ls7's are bigger cubes and make alot more hp to begin with, so maybe things were allready being pushed, I take it your talkin about c6 z06's, I'm sure not many of those running boost allready....??
