boost?

[jwheelz1212]

what is the most amount of boost you can run on a stock motor?
thanks

As much as you want until the engine starts knocking. On average 17 psi on 93 octane, unopened block, no porting.

Do you have the means to monitor what the engine is doing at full boost? If not, leave it where it is. It's cheaper than doing headgaskets.

Get a scanmaster, powerlogger, boost gauge, etc...before you start turning up the wick.

With or without detonation?

With knock... Not much
Without... A lot. I've seen engines live past 35 psi

What did those cars run in the 1/4 running 35 psi?
