what kind of power are you looking to make?? A lot of people have had good success with Vitara pistons and shot peened LS rods. That is pretty inexpensive and works well. If you're going to want 350whp+, you should go with a set of CP pistons and Eagle rods

well the less you do the more chances you have to blow your motor.
how much money are you looking to invest in the motor.
aftermarket rods and pistons and good ems and Fms will be needed definitly
