    if it has forged pistons it,s not really stock if 375hp or 425hp trw /gm.. gm never used a stock small dome 325/350 hp in forged Oem . but all were cast pistons but after market in speedpro piston.in the stock Gm o port close chamber dome shape . any gm bbc rod but the 65/67 3/8 rods with oilers and thin beam 3/8 late 80to 90s .rebuilt with arp or srp bolts can and will hold 600hp. same with cast crank . block can take all the power he could every make in a 396 hi 600s on the stock block two bolt main EZ with not much work good main cap bolts or studs but not needed been there done it .so with the right tune for Nos there can be a learning curve like i said even with the best parts you can turn good parts in to junk .....yep and like i told you the Nos should not be on top of that blower engine never use it less you want to rebuild it
