Default Aluminum block strength...

How long do you think an aluminum block with forged bottom end, except stock crank, with the right gaskets and all those goodies, would last with 12 psi from a procharger? I'm probably going to put 3000-4000 miles a year on the car. Thanks.

Yeap... I would use the lightest rods if you can and at least nitrate the crank.
