My car runs pretty good, I scalp camaro's mustangs and an occasional vette. However, I have poorly machined heads done by a "dumbass know it all" who was warned about the cleveland geometry. My heads regularly chew seals and spit them out. I have a block that is 40 over and I was warned about wall thickness. I have two cylinders that are a bit scary. That said, my car runs good, it develops great power, it runs very cool and I harass anyone I catch on the road... I will be careful to avoid these issues on my next build, but for now I beat the hell out this combo. It's on the last bore, the heads are not perfect, I am liberated to destroy it. It is holding up pretty well, but these issues are sort of a PITA....
