Yeah I have been down that road before, I have come to the conclusion that it is not a specific boost level, but a power level when it does it. 21 psi on the dyno, compared to 17 psi under heavy load on the track. I am going to o-ring this time.
The whole suspension is Midwest chassis drag setup, 9", LCA's, PHB, DR Anti Roll, long torque arm etc. Afco coilovers in the front Afco shocks, stock springs in the rear. 3.00 gear 28" tires, crossing the traps around 6200. The most boost I have lecft at was 8 psi with the 1.33 60ft. This track probably could have held more, it will be something to play with.
driving on the street, what is the max boost you see, and when do you see it?

Chute is easily removable 
155mph, I have a boost controller, I adjust the boost all the time, as little as 8 as much as 21, full boost by 4000 or so.
I am going to be looking into orings this week. 21-24* on E85 and it was perfect for a long time, until we ran in cooler air, and 17 psi.
It pushed before at 12* on 93 and 118 cocktail. It always seems to be right around the 1000 hp level on this setup with the L92's.
It has always been about the power level. I wonder if you can get a set of those gaskets or o-rings like they use in canada, I believe. A "pyramid " style head gasket or o-ring setup I think it is called? I had my old heads o-ringed and it helped out alot, but it eventually pushed water as well. How much timing are you at. It seems like 15-16deg. seemed to help out alot as well.

Very nice man!! I have been following your build and you only keep impressing me.
have you thought about trying the L19 head studs? pricey but may be an option as well. I have a buddy with them and he is running patriot heads making 1000 to the ground with no head lifting. I'm pulling for you to figure out the head lifting problems since i am running the L92 heads as well
congrats again
