If you tune right, it will stay together for the power levels most will aquire. My stock motor was re-assembled with 2 g pistons and took dyno proven 480whp and 9000rpm all day at the track and was driven everyday until I got sick of not having AC. Should have never removed it. By the way I used the SCM61 and I highly recomend it. good luck with your build up, there is capability of making big power woth the set-up.
How much boost were you running to make 480 whp? What was the compression on your motor? At what rpm in 3rd gear lets say did you hit full boost? Sorry ... ust trying to compare.
