Believe it or not there was someone I talked to who had a supercharged one running like 15 psi and he had like over 100 thousand on the motor and it ran great..</P>

And does anyone know anything about the Holley Systemax II kits for the 5.0 they say 350 horsepower but this guy with a 306 said he only dynod 289 rwhp with

15psi?? That's more than the off-the-shelf kits put out. He must have had some custom tuning done. Running that kind of boost with non-forged internals is asking for problems. But with 100k+ perhaps it's an older crate with forged? I don't know the history of that crate motor.
It's possible to run 50psi if it's tuned right, and if you drive like a granny and never get deep into the boost.
