Weakness... for the 1/4mile the gearing will still suck I reckon and I'm guessing the rods will give out at around the same level. Head gasket will likely be stronger though since it's only 9-1...

I also don't think the variable vein turbos will be able to take the kind of boost we all like to see for very long!
