Hi I'm a noob and this is first time building an engine. My power goal is 450fwhp. Any info would help.
Build:
Gsr block( stock sleeves 81.5mm bore)
LS crank( balanced and micro polished)
LS Manley H-beams
Supertech 9:1 cr pistons.
Cosmetic head gasket
ARP head studs
Arp main studs
ACL race bearings
Gsr girdle.
Stock gsr head
Stock TB
Edelbrock IM
Hobdata S300 w/tune.( still have to find a tuner. I'm in army so I'm kinda of new to the Tx area.)
Are my power goals capable,and what turbo kit should I get( no eBay junk)

Thanks for the help

Sincerely,
NOOB!!!

 

Engine looks good, you just need to research on a turbo kit

 

I'd use a Honda HG, not Cometic. And any decent kit with a decent sized turbo will get you there. 30r, 5858, 6262,etc. Hit up SpeedFactory for a custom kit and they can suggest turbo sizes etc. Also dont forget the need for an upgraded fuel system, map sensor, etc to reach your goals

 

Thanks guys

 

Sleeved block stock head?
I wound DEFINATELY do retainers.
Get some supertech valve spring / steel retainer set.I highly recccomend this upgrade.
A broken retainer may destroy everything(and 20 year old retainers destroyed many engines...)
If you are tight on the budget leave the IM stock.
Also i would use oem headgasket too.

 

Stock sleeves

 

Yes, stock sleeves

 

Well **** i wanted to write "forged"
