welcome.

my suggestion would be to do a complete rebuild on your block(bearings, rings, hone) and if it were me i would at the VERY least put some better quality pistons in it before throwing the boost to it. can a stock block hold boost, sure. should you ask it to? i find its usually best not to push things.

Thanks for the welcomes and suggestions guys. The full rebuild as far as pistons, rods, bearings, etc, etc, etc will all happen this summer when i have some more free time. For the mean time i will just be running 6-8 lbs as a daily so fingers crossed everything is ok til june.
