I'm wanting to start collecting parts for the next engine build, I'd like to do a forced induction setup. Assuming i'm looking at staying around 496ci does it make much sense to move to an aftermarket block or bowtie block? Assuming proper machining, studded mains, and proper assembly, are there any concerns with a factory block holding 1000 hp? I can see the advantages of the aftermarket block if I was going to a displacement in the 540-600 range, but am I missing anything else?
Either way I have to find a block, I have a lead on a +10 over mk4 4 bolt main.
