How many lbs will it give?

If that's not enough, find some more lbs somewhere.

Depending on compression and fuel I would spitball 6-8 lbs.
Trans & stall if auto also play a role.

I was 10ish pounds of boost on d1x

Does anyone have first hand knowledge of how much HP you could boost a .065-.070 6L block? Would a gen IV block hold any more power with such a over bore and boost?

thanks

I don't have first hand knowledge of boost in a block bored that far over. I have talked to my local machine shops about it before though. They normally don't recommend boost when boring more than .030" on an iron block, or .005" on most aluminum blocks. You could probably safely run 6-8lbs of boost on an iron block bored .065" over, but it's not generally recommended. Any more boost than that on a max-bored block and you are asking for trouble.
