Brian crower gave me a discount on every parti can use from them. Will these rods handle my 400whp goal? My oem bearings will be in Friday. Do I need to waste my money on micropolishing? Or just bore the block .5 and hone it. What other good machining should I get done

and I love the first video, right after they start their pull, you can clearly see they pass a cop doing a traffic stop, both look over and let off lol

You made good choices on the parts you bought...

Brian crower rods are slightly better quality IMO than eagles, yes they will begood for well over 400whp.

Cp's are good pistons as well, 10.5:1 CR was a good choice as well, you will be much happier.

As far as machining and motor assembly go:

Bore/hone, flatten the block deck with a very slight deck job, flatten the head with a very slight mill, everything else should be good to go as far as machining.

For block assembly, reliability will depend on proper assembly, you need to plastigauge the bearings and make sure everything is within spec, and use proper assembly lube, and arp's torque specs on the bolts.

If your not confident you can do this 100%, pay the machine shop or a reputable race shop to do the assembly.

When it comes to turbo choices, there are many options for your goals, your original turbo choices were no good, too big.... The question that really needs to be answered is how much money do you want to spend on the turbo?? like $800 or $1500, a budget will help others tell you what a good turbo will be.

Manifold, a traditional quality ram horn will do you well, a top mount is a waste.

Make sure you have plans for proper fuel system and engine management, as well as a professional dyno tune, without these steps your entire investment will be a big waste...
