im building my LS motor for about 15-22 psi currently i am doing the bottom end right now, the entire motor is ripped about down to just a bare block and i just got my weisco low compression pistons and eagle rods and i plan to have it bored 20 over here in a week or so then send it to get sleeved. Any ideas on what else i should do to the bottom end?? or any good ideas to do to the head??thanks

well wit the new pistons and rods. get new bearings as well. while ur doin all that replace ur timing belt, water pump and oil pump, all gaskets of course. and new valves for the head.

yeah you might wanna sleeve it before you bore it 20 over..lol, but yeah all bearings, block gaurd, arp head studs, hondata intake manifold gasket keep intake cooler. and there are tons of things you can do to the head. Id do somthing...i know to many people with fully built bottom ends that dro pa valve and ruin everything.

oh, dont forget thrust washers....that may come with the bearings not 100% sure, but make sure you get those also.

remember to measure/plastigauge maincaps and rods, write measurement down on paper, and order your correct size/color bearings.
