thats alot of qustions there.
Go with GSR block rathe than LS less lines to run and does the same.
Stick with 81mm stock bore motor with soem CP,endyn,wiesco,JE psitons and pauter rods or manley. That should be pretty stout setup run around 9.5 compression. I would go either Golden Eagle Sleeved or bensons.

yea i know it's alot of questions, i'm going crazy tryin to decide, i do have eagle rods for the gsr already. However i was thinkin that the gsr shortblock was worth more and i could sell it to help pay for my build and i'd get a little bit more displacement with the ls, but i'm leaning towards the gsr also, just need the extra help, thanks.

the eagle rods are nice and all but with all those goodies i would step up to higher end rods such as pauter manley crower.. the eagles work but do have tendancy to stretch the rod bolt.
I would sell the eagle and the LS block should be able to get around 500 bucks for both
