The Manley TT I-beams have been proven time and time again. That's why I bought them for my build.

I would chose GE sleeves or AEBS. I had InlinePro install AEBS sleeves in my block and havent had any issues at all.

AEBS sleeves and either rod will get it done. I would run aluminum rods personally if I didnt already have the crowers on my new engine build.

What does driving your car on the street have to do with running aluminum rods?

Are aluminum just fine with a bit of street driving? I've always wondered how long they will last with lots of just cruising? Do they have any issues with having a Ton of heat cycles ran through them?
Guess I've never heard of anyone putting them in a street car. Only full out race cars.
I myself have gone with Carrillo with the Carr rod bolts
Custom pistons 11:1 cr
And GE sleeves with orings

What power are your wanting OP?
I originally was just going to run a off the shelf piston with upgraded wrist pins but after talking to rob at TPR he advise not going that route at all.

as much as people disagree, you can Daily with aluminum rods without issues, it isn't preferred, but it's okay.
