[QUOTE="biminiLX, post: 16030543, member: 7795"] Well, I do think you can do it in that price range, but many variables and JDM sells rods that work with the stock Pistons. That only works if you are willing/able to use the stock rings. Depends on mileage and condition of engine but Mahle engineers were confident on both occasions we talked to them that the rings could be reused if inspected and in spec. Minimum then would be rebalance and new bearings but I'd add billet oil pump gears, second keyway and 8mm timing studs. Again, discussing with JDM or a local builder you trust. Only change if I were to redo my build would be a slight bump in compression to 11:1 as I'm on E85 and staying TVS. Once you're building for 1100+rwhp then sleeves and crank are very expensive requirements. -J [/QUOTE]
