Yes it does handle boost better and is why Mopar used it in the Drag Pack Challengers.

Yea but, those drag pack cars use the forged crank from the 6.1 engine. One of our club guys already fragged a 5.7 when he turned up the boost to 9.2 P.S.I. Nothing could be salvaged. The damage even cracked both heads.

You dont need to exceed 8lbs of boost for a Street Driver beyond that your looking at damage for sure with a lot of engines.

Just wanted to point out that after one adds a little too much boost, everything goes to hell. And rebuilding, $$$$$ is very costly. People need to be wise in their hunt for added power.
