what advice for a reliable Stage 4 modified AFTER 200,000 miles? if you want trouble free awesome performance for another 150K miles I would seriously advise new bearings, and rings. Not that you may NEED them at this instant, but modifying well used cars, even well maintained used cars, can add a lot of stress to the components.
I had my 88 modified with real high boost for years and years. I progressively saw the oil pressure slowly decline (not critically), and the engine in general get a slight bit noisy and not as smooth. SO new bearings it was, beautiful now;-)
might want to do the timing components and the balance chain (!) if you haven't already. Other than that week worth how home work, so you be up for enjoying a super fast stage 4!
