Default How much boost can my bottom end internals take

96 Ls motor, would it be safe to run 12-13 lbs of boost on them?

Because I have a H22 Lude motor in my EG right now, but I am throwing in a LS turbo setup! As for now, I am just learning about forced induction. I want to run 12-13lbs boost on this LS motor, what do I need to do!

well h22 you know how hard my car pulls I have heard and read over the years 10 psi safely on stock bottom end! if you plan on getting a drag III kit get them to change the plate in the vortech FMU to a 8:1 and getting some injectors! don't get the delta waste gate upgrade to the tial much better! the stock block will handle 10 psi as I have run it a few times and everything feels fine! I have boosted to 12psi once by accident ( when I blew my cat off my car and I was running just the down pipe! man it was fast..) personnaly I would just run 10 psi for now. as you will be incredibly fast! but what ever you decide I will help u install it!
