There will always be kinks with a modded car that you have to work out. Outside of that I have seen my fair share of issues with modded/built motor cars on this forum that it has my eyebrows raised enough to avoid modding my LT1.
What I might do if/when that time comes when I need more power is buy a crate engine. I really wish GM still made the LT 535. Not sure why they canceled it so quick.

Why unless your engine is wore out?
The crate LT 535 is your exact engine with ported heads and a cam.
