If you are just going to rebiuld the engine for daily driving, with no performance mods (other that I/H/E) than there is no use what so ever for dropping serious cash on forged rods and pistons. Stock rods and pistons can handle a little over 50 hp past the factory rating. Go to a parts shop (checker auto) and just get factory replacements. If you go to the dealer, you will spend a grip of cash for oem shit when all mechanics do when they rebuild is order from companis that make oem replacements. Save you money!! You will thank me in the long run. BTW, is this factory motor you are rebuilding, or a swap?
