WHAT DOSE EVERY ONE THINK IS A SAFE PSI TO RUN IN STOCK MOTORS? ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT.

In a stock standard motor above 10psi and you are entering the region where things start to come under stress, head gasket failure, cracked pistons, overheating etc. It is an exponential curve, one extra PSI provides a heap more stress than you would imagine. Always a trade off, if you don't mind lots of rebuilds run 15 psi and arrange an overdraft with your friendly bank manager LOL.

Well you could well be hanging onto it for a bit then.

You only sell Piazzas for $1000 to gemini guys. Anthing more than that and you have to wait for a really special kind of person to come along.
