And also, nothing that is built is gonna be as good as oem reliability, period.
YOu build a motor to beat the shit outta it, not for longetivity.

Ah got it.
Yeah, I can say a good seventy-five percent of the people who complain about failing frankenstein swaps are just idiots when they build it. With that swap there are quite a few more different variables that must be taken into consideration (such as oil supply)
And no, it will never get near OE reliability, but damnit a good builder can get close.

Totally agreed. Some guys are awesome builders, while others will make the motor worse than with the p75 head lol
