Default Stock bottom ls1, V2 S-trim, expected power?

What kind of power could I expect to run with a vortech v2 s-trim on a stock bottom end ls1, head work, ls6 cam, ls6 intake, full catless exhaust, etc. Also, what would be a recommended safe boost level? It would be through a t-56 and a 12 bolt.
Thanks.

WIth a simple meth injection kit you could ~8-10psi with no intercooler and probably 10-12 with an IC(and the meth). But I would recommend a piston change and rod bolts (at a minimum) before anything more than 8 tuned nice and safe.

In that range I think you would see ~460-510rwhp on 8# no IC, and ~475-520 with a good IC.

Before I went with the 403, I had my V1 on the stock bottom end with patriot stage 3 heads etc. It had two pulls and it was at the limit of the stock bottom with a 3.15 pulley. It was hitting 600rwhp @ 6100rpm, rod breakage territory. It has alot of potential.
