Default Rs500 small core block and the 200 block

Which block would you use for a 500/600 bhp build and why?

Are either of them any more reliable than the other?

I know the small core blocks can only be six long studded rather than 10, what are the major factors when choosing which one to use.

Regards Aaron.

Cheers mate, i've got a small core block that I was going to build up for my escos rally car.
But now thinking its not worth it. Not sure what to do now.
200 blocks are like half the price of small core blocks.......
