Not sure that the liners will hold up to that much pressure, At least not for long.

The LS7 will tolerate quite a bit. What it won't tolerate, or any engine for that matter, is any form uncontrolled ignition or detonation.

Good fuel and a good tune will decide how reliable your car will be.

Seen a few hold up. But not the norm for sure. And the liners are more susceptible to cracking, but its usually caused by some other failure such as a valve or piston giving up not hp or cylinder pressure. GL!

So what you suggested for me guys as i am not willing to change bottom and daily use ?

The nos plate system with 100 hp

Or supercharged with 5 or 6 psi

I knew the cost is wide different

But I wana let the engine run in normal situation for long term ?

Also if I decide to go for supercharged

What kind of supercharged is easy for installation and not need much modefecation in Ls7 as I am staying in Saudia Arabia and few work shop know how to install the supercharge in right way ??

Thanx a lot guys

Regards
Faisal

Choose one or the other, not both. Either do a 100-150 shot with heads/cam, or heads/cam/blower but I wouldn't do both.

Any of them are simple. Only one I wouldn't recommend is the eforce for those numbers, otherwise ECS, AA, PC, Whipple, Maggie, etc can all do 650 .
