I believe the stock connecting rods are good to like 1000hp... Sooo ya, I would just get your engine balanced and spend the rest of that money on the cyl head or something else.

Already balanced and ready to go... guess I'm sticking with arp 425s and a fire ringed head. Will hold 100psi Zach said. So I'm good :) and 1000hp

Will have the bare block and all the parts here in a month so I can finally start making it look like a complete engine and paint it.

Good lookin Build conner. Should be a nasty gen one.

On a side note, be careful spending money and time on a girlfriends truck. I've been there before, after spending $1000+ on exhaust, chip, lift pump, 5th wheel hitch and countless hours on my ex's truck during college. I ended up with nothing but a plum crazy cheating and lying truck slut. Not saying you'll have that issue, but just wanna give you and heads up to be careful. Wouldnt want to see anyone else go through all that.

Where you getting the p-pump from? What kind of turbo? Make sure to retorque the head a few times with the fire-rings.
 
Another update. Sorry guys not to much going on lately. Have a trip and stuff coming up. Ording my Calico coated crank/rod bearings this week.

Your projects move at about the pace of my projects. Makes me feel better now.

Build looks good so far.

They sold it to a shop without them even knowing it was a customer's head "mine" I know the owner of the shop they sold it too. Still just wrong so we gave them a week to find a good 12v head and have it ready for me tomorrow
