I should add that when an engine builder publishes a max number you can bet it's less than the failure number, e.g., 1400 is conservative. Everyone here knows that the stock short block will survive close to twice its published number.
I pullied my down last week from 2.625 to 2.75, and considered going to 3.00".
After all of the above, it seems more likely that I've got enough boost available but the engine can't flow it. It's making the same boost now that the OEM block had. Meth is looking better and better.
