The LSX454 don't like boost too much, you should be okay at 10-12lbs, but I'm no expert.

thanks guys

it should be fine on 11lbs, with 11:1 compression, and a 70cc heads and 643 lift cam, my tuner is estimating about 880 to 900 on 11lbs , i hope hahah..

on the cage, it wasnt bad but it wasnt no cake walk either! haha fit AMAZING i have no complaints at all wolf race craft makes one hell of a bolt in kit.

after looking again at your pics I have come up with 2 conclusions.

1: I am jeaslous of a few of your suspension parts

2: I really want your clean stock headlights
