    I'd say at least a good 45 and you dont even need to touch the pistons or cams just stock block head/studs










    No but seriously you will will need alot more than pistons and cams you need block and head work done to be able to push decent psi but they way it is stock without anything i would say like 8 or 9 comfortably

    What? Why are you yelling?

    What the hell are racing pistons? You going forged? Lower or Higher compression?

    Its not how much psi you should be running. Its how much power you want to be running.
