Default New motor and 8 rib

Just had a new bottom end built for my c6z with d1sc.Went with a lsx 427 lsx block, Diamond pistons, magnum crank. Running e85 and stock ls7 heads. Just got it back from the shop and it's making 820 and 740. Vehicle seems to run fine but it's only making about 8.5-9psi on a 8 rib. Compression is 10:1 btw.

Shouldn't it be making more boost? I think I have a 3.5 pulley on it too

Have a graph? Let's see where it's making power at.

Depends on the lower crank pulley. I have a 10" lower. 4.5" upper and see 21 psi with my F1X. With a 3.5 upper I have a feeling you are running a 8" lower or have a boost leak somewhere.

I believe a 8 inch crank pulley. I'll take a pic of the graph when I get off work.

You have to look closely to see the torque curve. It printed light.
