If you're just going for drag racing and short bursts of high throttle, you should be fine on an untouched stock bottom end, but not for a very long time. I would suggest checking out Motor Trend/Hot Rod Magazine's "Big Bang Theory" series. They accomplish some insane numbers on iron block 4.8/5.3/6.0 engines, and I can only assume similar would be attainable on an even bigger displacement, and be a good bit more reliable.

We have thousands over 700rw, hundreds over 800, and a handful over 900 rwho with stock bottom ends. Use the appropriate octane and you are good to go, the failure rate to date is literally in the 1% area and almost everyone one of them were heavily raced so when it went it wasn't something you could call premature, nothing lasts forever in racing.

Hey Doug,
Thanks for the info! I've tried contacting you on Instagram. I'm C6.Rico. I was looking at the ECS kit. But never got in touch with you. Yea I'm going to be running e85. My setup is the ECS stage 1 fuel system with the 1050x. Then I have a GPI stage 3 cam with ported manifold and tb from GPI. I also have headers and intake. Stock heads for now. So that will be my setup plus the blower on top.
