Default Stock B18A crank and piston advice.

I literally just jumped into the Honda scene 3 weeks ago when i purchased my 1992 Integra GS, so please bare with my Honda ignorance. I have come here to learn.

I am in the process of sending my block to get AEBS T-sleeves installed. I have already purchased Eagle rods good for 600HP, a ported and polished JG B18B head with upgraded valves and springs and a 1993 GSR tranny with LSD.

I plan on putting 400 to the wheels.

Will the stock crank survive that kind of power?

What would be the best compression ratio to order my JE pistons in for my "turbo" set-up?

I plan on getting my long block together before addressing any other issues.

This is the thread to read.

For the price of a ported ls head you can use a stock vtec head and make more power.The ls setup is good in the 300-350 hp range , but beyond that the ls/vtec is a more sensible setup.
9:1 comp. ratio is a good tunable setup.
The stock crank is good for more than twice what your looking to do.
There is a good ls/vtec turbo thread going too.
