Re: any input would be great
well if you want 400-600hp i would start from the begining with a stout bottom end
things recomended
sleeved block (can up the displacement maybe 84mm)
ls (89mm stroke),gsr (87.2mm stroke),b16(77mm stroke) crank depending on block you sleeve
pistons
rods:eagles,manley,pauter, carrillo (manley are the most popular)
bearings acl or oem
arp head and mainstuds
cometic head gasket
as far as the head go with a b16,gsr or type r head
i would atleast replace the valves,springs and retainers for your goals
and type r cams have been proven to put down good numbers many times
just go check out other poeples sfwd build threads and you will get an idea of what people use to make power turbos and ect.
hope this helps
