Technically I think only edelbrock and greddy are carbed approved. On kit sucks ***, other one is to expensive. So I would just throw custom turbo kit on it, and whenever you have to go to your stupid test thing just take it off. What's stocking D series. Which motor, what's done to it. Typically people run 6-8 psi daily on them. Anything past that you will have to take the head off and stud it.

blind leading the blind
there is no "regular" psi
it's all about whp
on a 100% stock block 220-230whp is pushing it for daily driving
now with arp head studs i would still only run 230-240whp and just be safer
all head studs do is keep the head from lifting
here are some good links for you to check out
