Say cost is no object, what would be a 1000HP build that would give the most RELIABLE SB motor, w/EFI, no NOS, streetable, non drag, Pump gas or E-85, ease to sort out, and lighter being better. Reliable being the most important criteria.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Number 1 thing would be a after market block with siamese cylinders, nice alum heads, forged or billet crank, H-beam rods, roller cam, EFI then your choice of turbo/turbos.... JMO

Now that's what I looking for, current build is already a Tall Alum 360 Alum mopar Block, which forces a dry sump, W-8 ported heads, then what are the most reliable endurance valves for turbo builds, max bore up to 4.180", need to decide stroke/cubes (low end is not critical, throttle response is more so), forged crank or is billet better/needed choice, I would rather limit rpms to keep reliability, rod size 2.1,2.0,1.88?, Ti rods are a consideration, roller is a definite, turbo is of course most obvious choice, but single vs dual turbos, intercooler just makes sense, but thought just maybe a Procharger type set-up might be more reliable to set-up and maintain for someone like me that knows just enough to get in trouble. As tough as it might be to finally put this package together, I am not in a position to be able to afford scattering it, hence reliability is of key importatnce in the chase for 1000 hp.

I wouldnt go the Procharger route it uses HP to make
HP where the turbo is basically free... valves...
a good stainless valve is plenty... no need for a
Ti rod... your not spinning it hard.... a chevy rod
size is fine.
It sounds like you would need to get the turbo setup
tuned for you but there are plenty of shops that can
put it on a dyno and take care of that for you
