It's not the amount of boost you make, it how much power you make with x amount of boost that will determine whether you block can handle it. If the motor is in good condition (i.e: low mileage, not burning any oil), with the combo you have right now, 12 lbs is going to put you in the 425-475 rwhp range (and that's safe on a stock block). I say go for it, but upgrade your fuel system and have a good dyno tune with a wide band O2 after the blower install and before you run it hard. You could always put it on a swap pullies so your running 8-10 lbs.
