I personally am weary about putting used internals in my car

titanium retainers may be lighter but are very brittle and can crack. i always liked oem steel retainers

stupid question but i also have venom 400 performance control module and MSD SCI-L would those help or should i work without them

known good working, quality parts that have lots of life left are fine to reuse. Would you toss your OEM crankshaft since it's used? Would you toss a JDM motor since it's used?

To switch out Crower springs for Blox makes no sense.

I assume the control module and MSD are both ignition parts, and in which case, don't bother. You don't need aftermarket ignition stuff until you start going for like 600-700hp.

never said i was tossing them out just have bare si head and couldnt figure out whether i should go with the blox i got new in box or the crower... decided on crower any idea how much hp stock b16 sleeves with .5mm bore would hold??
