it kinda depends on how much boost u wanna run. and how much to u have to spend. u could buy like a jg built block for like 4500, which can handle supposedly around 35 psi of boost. so i dont think u would really have to worry about blowing up that block.

if not then, i say knife edge the crank, resleeve it, new rods and pistons, deck the block, arp bolts throughout the engine. with the head get new complete valvetrain, springs, valves, retainers, etc. p&p the head, dont forget the cam with the valvetrain to match the lift of the cam

that should handle kinda high boost maybe like 15 psi, but i always like to be safe then sorry so i would put it a few psi less. but if your only gonna run like 10psi, then that block will handle fine
