should I rebuild a LOW mileage motor b4 boosting
My question is "if I should rebuild a 50-60k miles motor before boosting it"?
I don't think the sleeves are gonna be a problem, since I am boosting 10psi with forge pistons.
But I have heard bearing may go bad in a year or so if I dont rebuild before boosting it?

Rebuild isn't to important with low miles, just make sure it's well tuned before if you go runnin 10 psi on a stock bottom.
Edit, sorry just noticed you included forged pistons in your original post, may not hurt to shot-peen rods while there out our go for a set of aftermarket. Deff check clearance on all bearings before putting it back together.
