Re: [Amc-list] Turbo stock 4.0

Forged pistons and/or E85 would help solve 'some' of the piston issues.  Stock engine and 10-psi would be more reasonable for longevity's sake.
 
I read an article on a SBC stroker that was around 10.5:1 compression and then they supercharged it with about 20-lbs boost and E85.  No detonation issues.

Yeah, for 10 minutes of dyno life. What's 'breaking point' for 10K,
50K, 
100K miles? Probably 5psi.
