Default Lm7 questions, *newb alert*

Just picked up my 5300 cast block and I am looking into ordering some parts for it. I have the complete engine. I am looking at doing Wiseco (Have used them in 2 different cars and I liked them) My question is should I do a stock bore and go 20 or 30 thou over, or should I chance it and go to 3.898 and run LS1 sized pistons?? Any complications more likely if I go that large? Or is it completely safe.

The articles I read sounded like it should be safe, but I would like some experience on the issue.

I'll be doing a full build on the engine (on a budget) Looking to do, Cams, springs, rods, pistons, cometic MLS and ARP head studs and mains. Pretty basic stuff, I'll keep reading to find other posts, but let me know if you have any thoughts on the build, thanks,
