While the boost level will be limited due to the compression ratio, your bigger limitation will be the bottom end. If you have a stock bottom end, you will be limited by its strength. Go too high and you may be building that other engine sooner than you think. So your question should be phrased more like "How many rwhp can I run safely on the stock internals?".

Take a look at our '95 formula. The internally stock engine has been on 9 psi of boost for four + years.

How many miles does it have on it now?
I spoke to someone last year who said he was running 450 rwhp on his LT1 (mods plus Procharger), but it grenaded on him after about 25k miles.
