The reference section has a list of engines and their preferred swap applications. Check it out.
As for the condition of your engine, perform a leakdown and a compression test to check it out. At 145k I would recommend a rebuild before boost no matter what, but as long as the engine shows up as healthy after those tests, you're usually ok to boost.
