Its officially Winter. Another small block build begins

How much power would a stock 360 block take? Do you going to reinforce it?
I hope to that my block will take some power.
Maybe going for roller cam, how much hp do you think you will gain extra from mec flat tappet vs mec full roller?

I beat on my last 360 block for three rebuilds and in need of its fourth. I pulled it and my Son ended up needing it. I knew better but hey its my kid so he ended up running 10.08 in his 3200 pound car and he feel in love with it till it grabbed a bearing and broke a rod. Those parts were bought by a guy across the ocean. As far as the block I'm not a believer in girdles and concrete so the only thing I did to the block was main studs.
