building it N/A and you should have no worries add a power adder and you may hit limits up around 450 to 500 rwhp block will be weak link before internals bust...usually it happens when a N/A block is built up and a heavy dose of boost is added on top of that

my mustang has factory gears and a 5 speed because its a daily driverbut my 1982 trans am with a built chevy 350 and a bomb proof th400 has 3.73s and on the highway 4000Rs get about 75mph but again thats why its a race/weekend car and not a daily driver!

^exactly. Im running 450 on the 100% stock bottom end BUT i only drive the car about 3K miles a year and i know it could let go any day. I wouldnt be comfortable running that much if its your daily driver or you wont be able to fix it if the motor lets go
