sounds like you really want to Overbuild it and spend the money on the wrong stuff. unless your looking for 8's and 9's

stock compression is 10:1, just remember the lower compression the better a turbo will produce.
The LS6 camaros came in a handful and i spent 250 on the block and today its at a machine shop getting a .030 overbore. The stcok powdered rods are said to only hold 500 reliably, and i just want to do the strocker kit and have the forged components incase i do decide to go in to some hot nitrous spray, and/ or forced induction. But i might keep the stock crank, and go for H-Beams Shaggy what do u think, Lunati or Eagle?), and some JE or Eagle psitons

If it was mine Id get Lunati or one of the domestic steel companies(or Aluminum like BME).
Eagle is foreign steel ,Now dont get me wrong Eagle makes good rods but only with the L19 bolts or above :thumb: Id leave the factory crank in it as long as it doesnt have to be turned alot ,they are forged and supposely support 1000hp pretty well.

JE or Wiseco would be my choice.

That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan; retails for about one hundred nine, ninety-five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right, shop smart, shop S-Mart!
