In the 120R threads a couple have indicated buying the kit and boring their cases to retain the original VIN number. Seems I read that the "crate engine" cases are stronger than the OE ones though?

Seems you are pushing forward the frontiers of 120R tuning, with your supercharged one! I suggest you get on with boring yours and report back! I don't think you're going to get much response on here.
