Default callias dragonslayer or compstar?

I'm building a 408, with compstar rods and diamond pistons, to handle no more than 20 psi...is the dragonslayer worth the extra money over the compstar or will the compstar work just as well?

I think you'd be fine with the Compstar crank with the turbo. A supercharger would put alot more stress on the crank snout, which is why I asked.

I don't really see the point in upgrading to the Dragonslayer crank if you are going to use the basic Compstar rods.
