450bhp should be reliable enough in a 205 block if done right, although i am now also thinking of reworking the head whilst i have the opportunity
i think in a road car 400BHP is ok with a 205 block but I use the car in anger on track so it gets a hard life . And looking back at it the motor started to show sines that some thing was going rong when I last did Bedford auto drome .
