200 on wards...
Depends on what psi you are going to be working , fuel system , head work , camshafts , engine max rpm , ecu.....
What exactly are you aiming for , just a big bhp number with no reliability or steady track car pushing 200-250bhp with longevity??

I got the clutch second and the block was obviously not new, but was a 16k Picasso block. Even had the hone marks marks from when it was built.
Rods new, cams new, Pistons new, pulleys new, oil/water/bearings obv new! baffle on group by, gasket//bolts obv new, ran in on mineral and mapped on synth. Can be seen running and have meter to check compression, back in 4 Weeks so plenty time to save.

Why don`t you buy a vts engine & let someone with the knowledge build you a good spec engine.

What part of low mileage Picasso block don't you understand. You asked about parts, they are new.
Fair play if h wanst to build his own but 1500 won't even get him half that spec.
