Then wait a few weeks/months...
a 200shot is a 200 shot and stock mains can take it, but 13 psi can be 600whp or 1000whp depending on the size of the turbo and the motor.
If it where me building the motor i would do it. You might regret it later.

NO YOU WILL BLOW YOUR MOTOR WITH 750HP ON STOCK MAIN BOLTS
There I said it. Go get studs. Trashing your engine because you skimped on studs will make me laugh at you. Just get 'em.

When ever use main studs imperative the block is align honed with them
My engine builder align hones even new LS factory blocks, all your block machine work is based off the main journal.
