Top end will original sans roller cam upgrade. I don't keep things stock. This car has been and will continue to be enjoyed and driven as it should. Being the block essential IS the car, it would be ahame it it got hurt which is my only concern. Do others shelve these SD bloacks or send them and let it rip?

I drive my SD. It as 125,000 miles and has never been rebuilt. I drive the car but I don't beat it... though I'm not afraid to put my foot in it once in a while.
If your plan is to run the sh** out of it and beat it to death... you might want to find a different car..
