6.0 iron short block limit? looking for some oponions here, you can see most of my set up below. i have a bone stock 6.0 longblock in my truck and have been running the whipple on it for about a year. i recently added a nx wet kit sprayed right after the blower. so far i have only tried the 35shot with 6psi of boost.
i monitor and log everything i can, i have a wide band and am seeing right at 11-1a/f ratio, i run 100 octane and see 0 knock retard, seeing about 15deg of timing. pulse width is good, fuel presure gauge. 9.4-1 compresion!!
my question is how far can i push this thing before it blows, i obviously wont be devastated if it does blow or i wouldn't have tired the 35 shot but i am not looking to blow it up either. who here thinks i can take it farther and how much farther or am i going to break something if i go farther. should it have broken allready?

Re: 6.0 iron short block limit? sky is the limit..
well Harlan pushed his stock ls1 aluminum block to 576rwhp, so if you have made tuning skills like him id say somewhere around there.
