did you do the mod yourself and it's running. Got some pics?? Sweet setup, cheap for insurance, good on gas, and V8 power when you need it. It should probably take more than 8lbs if it's intercooled. I had a super coupe before and used to push 12lbs through it no problem. The wife blew the head gaskets after putting some 87 octane in it. I had the heads oringed. and head studs and upped the boost to 15lbs and drove it for 2 years before i sold it back in the late 1980's.

it's all up to the tune on the question 'HOW MUCH BOOST TILL SHE BLOWS"!!!
