the motor can handle boost, it's the tranny that can't. If it wasn't for this POS tranny there would most likely be a good amount of boosted 3.0's

at 25psi your motor would probably go before the tranny

yeah, and if you ever did get a dr evil tranny, you probably coulnd't go much higher than 10 lbs of boost before causing serious damage to the engine. this engine wasn't made for boost, so unless you rebuild it to withstand more boost, 10 psi should be the limit. probably make about 300-325 hp at the crank with 10 psi.

the engine wasn't designed for boost, but they can handle it, there are a few j30's in sand rails out here that are hooked up to vw trans that run 10-18psi and the owners can't believe how well the motors hold up
