i was lookin to go LSV-T myself but found some reasons not to especially in a complete stock bottom end and head. for a stock bottom block, revving past 7200 is pushing the bearings a lil hard. the main concern was the LSV conversion kit and hassel of replacing the main and rod bearings and gettings new rings, you gunna use the golden eagle conversion kit?
when its finish, update us on how its going

its not so much the bearings seeing the stress as the rod bolts. you can do it keeping a relatively stock ls redline. i used to shift my ls at 7300-7400 no problems for well over 10k miles

As stated, its the rods and b18b1 head that limit revs. Rods that stretch will pinch the crank, heating up severly and spin/seize the bearing. The head is known to toss some nuts off durning long autoxing or high reving, but's oviously not an issue here.
