Post stock block w/ 15 PSI

Does anyone know how a stock 302 block will handle 15PSI from a D1 procharger? My bottom end only has ARP rod bolts. Thats it. I have TFS heads and E303 and all the other typical stuff. Any ideas on how long it will last. Thanks.

Keep away detonation, give it plenty of fuel, and check your plugs for any signs of problems. Lots of people run lots of boost on stock bottom ends, and there engins live long happy lives. If this is your first supercharger I would start out small (like 8#'s) and work your way up so you can get an idea on how it will react.

Talk to anderson motorsports...they will give you a good idea on how much a stock block can take..usually they say anywhere from 10-14 psi with a pms.

You can do it.Don't put alot of timing in it and give it more fuel than you normally would.
