Default Need some opinions

Okay I am playing with the idea to install the 4.25 pulley and seeing if that magical 650rwhp is there on a stock shortblock thats only 18 more rwhp. I am spinning the car too 6500rpm and seeing round 9 to 9.5psi with the 4.5 probably see 10.5 to 11psi with the 4.25 should i go for it I have plenty of fuel and will take out a little timing. What do you guys think go for it or be happy with what i got and enjoy it for as long as i can??? Need to know asap as if I am doing this the tuner is going to meet me today

Goodluck but you may want to run some race fuel or torco if you can....That just seems like you may get in the redzone and I honestly think that you should just be happy with where you have it now unless you're planning an immediate shortblock swap...If you are then good luck and have fun!!!
