Default Stupid Question

I realize this is a dumb question and I am embarassed a lil to ask it lol but here goes

My mods are in my sig, I know LSx motors don't like much more than 8-10lbs of boost or much more than 600rwhp in stock form. Say I put a D1SC ProCharger on my stock block with the mods I have below @ 8lbs would that be relatively reliable, or would it send my motor on a downward spiral :-)....of course the tune would be good but I would assume it would make quite a bit more than 600rwhp. Anyone out there running combo similar to mine on a stock block with the D1 @ 8lbs.

Thanks,

Jeff

YOu might be able to live with 8 to 9 lbs of boost, but your cam is wrong so you will lose boost with it you will also have to lose your ud pulleys with a blower. I don't know what the cc's of the head are so I can't tell if your ok with that.
