Default Thoughts on this for a forged engine?

Roush/Yates (my local shop) has a 4.6 3V S/C AL SHORT BLOCK for $4,300 shipped. I have a ProCharger P1-SC-1 pushing 10 lbs of boost. The car is not a daily driver. I show it and I race it at Z-Max and Mooresville.

Thoughts on whether this would make for a good engine to allow me to confidently use all of my horsepower??? What is it missing???

Suspension mods come after this...

You need to know what fasteners and rings they used. If not ARP fasteners and moly rings, pass.
