Be careful with the bottom end as its the weakest point. I am dropping a 98 Cobra block shortly with new rods,pistons in prep for SC or turbo so keep boost to a min and get it tuned. A couple of hundred $$ is better than a couple of thousand $$ in repairs. There was a vid of a SC Cobra racing a LS1 vette and it smoked the vette but right after he had a sunroof on the Block.

I agree it's better to spend a little more now than a h#$$ of alot later. Also if you're already spending that $$$$ take it to a good speed shop and have a good tune done. Not only safer but possibly more power. Also a whole lot more reliabiltiy and driveability
