Well what do you intend to do to this motor? I mean if you intend to replace all the internals(pistons, rods, bearings...) then the milage on the motor won't be all that important. If you just plan to plunk that thing into the shell of your choice w/o any work then you'll want to spend a bit more for something known to be sound.

Your block guard will likely make it run hot. 80k is quite alot for going turbo. I'd recommend rebuilding it while it's out and if you're going to run alot of boost get some aftermarket rods & pistons.
