For the price of an aftermarket block these days, you cant go wrong.
if you strung up on using a factory block, get an earlier style 4 bolt, stud it and 1/2 fill it....it will hold up to 800HP but you might be changing the bearings often.
I run a SBC Twin turbo but im using a Dart Little M block....nothing fancy really, good crank (Callies) and decent rods (Eagle H beam w/ L19 rod bolts), JE off the shelf pistons, etc...
Remember every $ you put in that stock block is 1 step closer to an aftermarket.....and all my Dart block needed was a finish hone & the deck cut.
What do you plan on using for the fuel delivery, carb's are working good these days ;)
