Appriciate any feed back.

cheers Tonyd
your engine has a CR of 9.0:1, which is pushing the envelope for adding forced induction. You will be limited in the amount of boost you can run. You could drop the CR by .5 or so by opening the combustion chambers on the heads. This would allow you to run 5 lbs of boost without worrying and maybe a little bit more.
