How much boost will a stock bottom end hold?

Don't post that up on the corral! It's the gospel truth over there that a stock block automatically splits at 500 hp.

Corral can lick my sack!

Yeah, Dale found out it was cracked when he went into it.

I still play around in the lounge over there, but the tech section has turned into total shit.

.

My block didn't crack under boost. The motor was inspected and freshened up when the blower came off the car. It cracked at some point and time on the last combination

I agree with qkjuiced. Keep it around 500 rwhp, good tune, and it will live.

How much boost to get to 500? 10psi?

I would do turbo. Quieter, better mpg, doesn't take a massive fuel system to feed the same hp as a blower car....

And way cooler

Depends on the whole combo.

qkjuiced is right.

If you look in my thread "History of the 93" you can see my combo at 14psi

Stock intake, stock t/b, AFM blower cam, AFR 165 heads

An S trim at 12-14psi will probably get you close to 480-490 rwhp with your current combo. If you went turbo I would change the cam for sure.
