Default Putting a new heart in the CTR ( Ek9 Rebuild Round 2 )

So most of you saw my old thread of my ctr when it was riced out with the wizard of oz paintjob. Well in the last thread i painted it and made it all look nice but when i finally took the car on a road trip it decided to throw a rod on the way back home. So i somehow get the car back home with a lawnmower trailer and park it in the garage for some down time. And now the build starts....

Also, if you have not seen my old thread here you go:

I wanted to use forged internals with the b16b block but they do not make aftermarket rods for my case so i had some thinking to do... I found out that a gsr crank, pistons, and rods would work perfectly in the motor so thats what i did. I went with Scat GSR rods, 82mm Wiseso 10:1 compression flat top pistons, acl race bearings, cometic headgasket, oem oil pump, water pump, timing belt, ect...

Good luck getting it back together. Get that engine bay and rad support painted while the motor is pulled!

What crank did you use? I'm curious why you chose 10:1cr pistons. What is your goal?
