Interested in Procharger but my compression is kinda high

Is anyone out there running one with compression as high as mine? How much boost would be safe at this compression?
I could use a thicker head gasket. Right now I'm using a 0.040" Cometic with 62cc AFRs.
Another 6 grand ready to be spent lol. What do you guys think?

We used methanol on this 11.0/1 engine and added an APS twin turbo kit.

I would not of tried running 9.2 lbs of boost with a turbo with 11.0/1 compression of 93 octane fuel without the methanol injection. Bob

Bob that car is incredible! Him and I have gone down similar paths, except I opted for the 347. I like the APS intercooler set up and they have a nice drop in tank system as well but I can't afford that twin turbo kit. I'd like to combine those elements with a d1SC from you. But you know how money is. I just dropped all the AFR coin and had my 90 and 205's Mamofied so funds are low right now. I might try and peice it together slowly over the next 5 months til spring time.

I'd hate to have the stock short block pop and ruin my heads

I know if anyone could come up with a good set up and tune that would be reasonably...ahh...make it last for a season or so, it would be you.
Any guesses what such a set up would entail? What kind of boost levels and power gains? I suppose meth injection would be a good idea. A thicker head gasket and a different cam? Definitely a stronger fuel pump, injectors, colder plugs, and a wide band AFR guage. Yikes! It's going to cost a few $
