9.3-9.35:1 compression in case you didn't know already.

That should go pretty well with the low boost numbers. With all the parts you've picked I'm guessing that the 2.8" pulley should net about 10psi@6000rpm. The torque off idle should be rather impressive though.

I remembered about the 122H. I was going from the numbers that the GTO put down. That was a pretty much stock 5.7L with a 2.9" pulley. Between the extra cubes, cam, headers, heads, etc, I'd expect at least a 1-3psi drop in boost over the GTO which would put him in at just over 10psi.

only if it was converted to a 1 to 1 rear drive ratio and was running an 8" crank damper
