Default need opinions on which block i should use w/ my FULLY built head?

well i just got a JG port and polished head... here's what she has:
b16 (pr3) head
FG full port and polished
3 angle valve job
FG stainless steel valves
rocket m/sdual vavle springs

Sounds good to me. I would go with forged rods/pistons instead of OEM.

yeah...since you spun the bearings, the crank is either bad, or you'll need to machine it...so if i were you, i'd go find an LS crank/rods, and throw your ctr pistons on that...your compression will be in the 12's or so, but that's perfect for those skunk2 cams you have...good luck...and keep me updated on how you do.
