you'd maybe make more hp at the top end, but you'll have a lot less everywhere else. Also, you're gonna be pretty much at the ceiling of the upgrades for that engine, unlike the s52, where you're just stock.
sorry to hear about your engine, I have an m44 short block, but no compression ratings. I could do $350 shipped. It had 109k miles on it. PM me if interested
