It all depends on who builds your motor and the parts used. I know a guy who has one and it is his daily driver, no problems at all except the poor gas MPG. Get a quality builder and use quality parts and you should be good to go.

Build a solid engine, no probs. My bro. built a 383 for his 57 and it screams. If you know what you are doing and can build it yourself, this is a great option. If not, learn how, or shell it out to get someone that does.
