10 psi is not much to worry about but for a very safe and reliable build I would go for 9.0:1 with new pistons and rods (CP and Eagle or sumthin like that)...The LS crank is good for way beyond that so don't worry about that.

you don't know what turbo he wants to run, so how do you know that 10 psi is not much to worry about?

and a compression test is a good idea before boost.

B18A1 block bro...thats what I'm going off of, NOT much to worry about, he's not gonna go get a GT35R if he's not doing internal work (I would hope)...stay calm, no ones out to get you
