it's built for speed not longevity, woman
Is it a stock 351? what heads are you planning on running? are you using stock style truck pistons or low compression aftermarket? this kinda stuff is gonna matter.
the more "free flowing" your parts are the harder its gonna be for the KB to build boost. if you are using basically stock 351 stuff then it will be fine.

13:1 on boost!! wow. well i say with that much compression the KB should have no issues filling the volume requirements.

yeah dude. you should really take the time and learn a little more about engines. you cant run a blower w/ 13:1 pistons
High compression and boost are ok with ethanol. My twin turbo 351 had 13:1 compression. Do some reading about ethanol on theturboforums. I am making a blog on how to make high quality fuel, and how to convert a race or street car to burn it.
KB 2.1 will not keep up with a 351W beyond say 8psi.
waste of money. ........... slap a couple turbos on her.
and yes, lower that compression a lot if you want to run boost.
Even with 113 octane E85 you will have detonation concerns.
E85 plus water/meth injection would probably get you by though.
