Alright, I think I've just about got my build up planned out
88/89 D16A1
75.5mm bore (high seems to require custom pistons, otherwise I'd be all over 77mm)
86/87 rods
88/89 OE pistons
remove middle layer from OE headgasket (.2 compression bump)
P&P head and intake manifold
Unknown cam profile
I guess I really need to know what the max cam profile I can use before it tears up my stock valvetrain

Yes. That's why I can't do 77mm. The only way to get pistons are to get them custom. 75.5 is the only other OTC piston available
