Default dependability ?

I think I'm just going to go with the 514 FRPP crate motor. I am planning on using the car mainly for street driving with occasional autocrossing road racing events. What kind of durability isuues if any does this motor have ? I'm new to the big block. My experience has been with the Windsors. The 347's had some oil control problems because of the pin going up into the oil ring. Hate to ramble I'm just looking for something that will last maybe 50k miles before needing any major work
