In about a week I am gonna come into a bit of money, so I have some questions on a motor I'd like to build up for my CRX.

B18a block, shooting for 11:1 comp and a 100 shot of nitrous on top of that. I plan to get some forged pistons and rods. Anybody have any preferences on companies that make the best/strongest for the least money?

Will the stock LS sleeves be adequate for this setup, I dont plan to rev it past 8000. More realistically, keep it down around 76000-7800. Also would I need a block guard, or is that just a problem for boosted motors?

And yes, the motor will have all new bearings, seals, etc with ARP hardware all around.

Thanks.
