Any motorheads know about blown engines?

I've been collecting parts for my 68 Fastback Mustang mid life crises car. So far I have a T-56 6 speed, Global West tubular suspension and EFI 5.0 with a Kenne Bell Blowzilla/Flowzilla Twin screw blower.

I have always liked the Airflow Research cylinder heads and notice that they are now making the AFR185 head in a 72cc chamber.

72cc would put the stock forged piston engine in the area of 8.12 compression and I'm thinking about running a Comp Cams XE274 cam.

This is my question

How much boost can I safely pump into my engine while running 92 octane gas?

Thanks
Ken
