Re: (EM1_mrnut)
Unless you forgot to post eagle/crower/etc RODS in that list, then being reliable is relative. If you never take it past 7500, it should be like any other semi-built motor. The rods will want to spin the bearings, bend in half, or snap their bolts if you take it above 7500 every day.
And as fmr says, it also comes down to condition of the used items. IMO the majoriity of built blocks are piles of ****, esp if it wasn't done by a pro, and the owner is anything less than a fanatic about maintaining hit motor.
