Default how is this setup for a daily driver

hey guys....just like the title says. https://ls1tech.com/forums/vehicles-sale-lsx-powered-only/474978-guaging-interest-2000-ss-camaro.html I know it really should have a new rear end but i am wondering about the reliability of the engine. sorry if this is in the wrong forum.

how do you think those mods will effect the life of the engine? i would get on it wot sometimes but i wouldnt abuse it. It might see the track 1 or two times a year. Also with that setup would there be any extra effort needed to maintain it?
