all depends on how much testing they've done, as the cylinder pressure and rod loads will be effected by boost but also by the amount of spark, where the cams are etc etc

so the engine load is entirely dependent on the tune / calibration

I'd say knowing Edelbrock's reputation they are probably being quite conservative with their tune and only warrantying installations that use their tune
that's what I'd do anyway

when we produced our kit we measured cylinder pressure on the test bed and had a target figure not to exceed - the end result is what we got whilst being careful not to exceed this figure
