On a STOCK 350 (9.3:1 compression) you can safely run 6#'s of non-intercooled boost and 10#'s of intercooled boost without any problems,(if engine is in good working condition)...

To lower the engine compression ratio, you can either change the pistons to a dished style, put on a bigger chamber cylinder head, or put in really thick head gaskets.
