What is your intended purpose for the built block? N/A? FI? WHP/WTQ levels?

This is huge, what are you building the engine for, N/A v Boost will be very different.
Such as Dwnshift (Doran Racing) is built for racing and must stay N/A others here are going SC/TT/T and need different compression, rev limits, etc.

For the OP, it really depends, the engines are good so far with many people putting on high mileage with boost but you also need to invest in supporting mods, a good tune, and keeping up proper maintenance.

I suppose for the sake of this thread FI would be the desired hypothetical here. Since the engine "seems" (with exceptions) to be reliable up to 450/500whp, what say we assume it's over that threshold.

This is meant to be purely hypothetical and give people a ball park for how much work they can expect to put into a build. If I do go FI, it won't be for atleast 3 more years.
