Thanks guys for your posts, made good sense, they are rev rockets with a limited life expectancy.

The reason I was looking at Nascar engines is from some accounts the 351W engine is still a weak block, over 500bhp, so I suppose a guy would have to shell out and buy an SVO Block to give a bit more integrity, or else fit a bottom end cradle, even fit four bolt main caps?

Another question is surely a non stroked 351W with the right combination, on pump gas (10:1) should make reasonable power, the Aussie supercars are doing it on that and making 600bhp.

jdean: I must get a copy of that magazine, to get some ideas.
