10 will definately be OK....

If you slap an SAFC and tune the car, i see no problem running 12 but you should prpbably put a better FP in it

at 8 PSI, you car is probably running rich righ now with the 720's anyway....

If you removed the AC heat exchanger, you stock rad should hold up to the HP as well. Make sure your coolant is up to snuff, and its been flushed and all that crap.
