Most people will tell you not to go much over 320-340hp without uprating your internals. I personally have run much more than that on a standard engine and had no problems in the year or so that i was running it.

Thats not to say you would have the same experience. Its a how long is a piece of string question really.

With regards to a rebuild,you really need to determine what your ultimate goal will be, otherwise you may find yourself buying parts only to find you didn't need to in the first place.

Hope this helps
