Default high comp & boost

ok want to get off the juice and into some boost. the problem is im running 243 heads milled to 59 cc with a .045 gasket. the cam is not ideal (232/236 580 580 112+4) but i think it will do until i get a built long block. i was thinking of getting an A&A kit with a YSI and just run a big pulley, alot of meth, and a conservative tune. one thing i do have in my favor is DA, it goes from 4000' in the winter to 8000' in the summer. do you think it would be ok to shoot for around 600-650 rwhp without it being a ticking time bomb?

I ran 11.1 CR for 3 years with a S trim 11 lbs of boost. It is a little high, if it is a built engine you could run 6 or 7 maybe more with meth.
