No reliability issues whatsoever. If all you want is a dyno number, then you can hit four digits (on a chassis dyno) with the oem internals - all you need for internal mods is a ported head and aftermarket cams.

The oem connecting rods are the least strong component, and may fail with nitrous usage over 1000hp.

Yes. In fact, 1000hp, RELIABLY, is no issue whatsoever (850rwhp through the getrag V160 6spd)...using the oem internals. Of course, you'll need high octane race fuel, an aftermarket fuel system, an aftermarket single turbo kit, and some wider rims & rubber to hold the power.

Please review this info, and then let me know what follow-up questions you have. I believe that this will be an interesting discussion!
