Pistons? Rods? Rebuild?

1fastt2 · 09-22-2018, 12:28 AM

I'm going to be doing a full rebuild in the next few months. I broke a ring land and figured I might as well build it up. I was planning for a closed deck conversion along with JE Pistons and Carrillo Rods.

Has anyone had experience with the JE Pistons or the Carrillo Rods?

Do I need to run any special bearing set? Are the coating bearings really worth the price?

Are ARP heads studs worth the investment?

What am I missing? Anything?

On the current setup Im putting down 700whp/660tq.

I'd really like to up the boost after the rebuild.

Any recommendations??
