I had terrific support from Trevor at TSP & I would really recommend TSP too
Im doubtful on the weak points due to lack of first hand expertise where I did a fair bit of " " for a month now
I need some help triggering the Weak Points of the parts that I'm about to order -
Would I be able to Add Nitrous to my Setup without blowing my shortblock ?
How hard is it to tune 100mm MAF ?
What Rocker Arms ?

You need gears for this set up 4.10s will leave you some space for spray if you decide , find a good tuner and I think the 100mm will be ok. By stock bottom end are you saying stock displacement and your rebuilding it? ARP rod bolts require resizing. I wouldn't want to turn the 6800+ you'll need to turn on a stock 99 bottom. Some get buy with it, some don't. I would tighten the LSA up to a 112 anyway. That'll move power a little lower. Stock rockers will be fine with the trunions and I would measure pushrod length after everythings together.

Is this a rebuild? I dont understand the need for all the bearings if not. You dont need to do all that to hit 10's but if its a rebuild then ok.
Also, I may have missed it but is this an auto or stick. Autos need a 4k stall for an ms4. Also, and even more so if this is a stick car, that rear will bust. Get a 12bolt and be done with it. I've broken every 10 bolt I've taken to the track.
As stated before you need bigger gears as well.

Thank you all for the response, Well All the bearings & bolts are to be safe only.
Tearing the engine down while I'm at it so why not stiffen it up is what I'm thinking.
It can be a rebuild if required for safety but would appreciate to save on the dollar too.
So what are you guys saying ditch the bearings & rod bolts ?
I'm going to spin that motor quite often on a 6000 rpm to stay safe but wouldn't want the current leftover stock parts ruin the fun in couple of months !!
Ill pick up the 100mm MAF & the hell with it, a month for tuning should do.

450rwhp has become pretty standard practice in a Stock bottom end LS1 and I dont see the need to do the bearings and rod-bolts unless you plan on a rebuild.
If thats the case, then sure do it but I would go ahead and beef up the whole bottom end with pistons and rods if that were doing the rebuild. I personally wouldnt go through the trouble and spend the money without doing it all. Its one of those all or nothing deals for me.
With prc 227's and the MS4, I'm betting you are more in the 470+ rwhp range though. those are really good heads.

wiseco's for pistons, hands down. They have a really nice ring setup and it comes with the pistons. Rods are more of a preference at that power level in my opnion. I like the compstar stuff but the Lunati, and Scat would work just fine imo and keep some cost down.
Of course you could always just buy a stroker short block and go bigger..lol

That set up will want to turn more than 6k. Closer to 7k. And what happens with the rod bolts is they stretch and allow the bearing to turn. ARPs require resizing so unless you pull the engine and basically rebuild it ( I wouldn't do at 15k) they aren't a option. You could either use a Katech bolt (some have turned bearings two weeks later) or take a chance on the stockers. If I were going to pull the motor down to the point I was changing rod bolts or resizing I would just sell the perfectly good LS1 you have and buy something bigger. Just seems more cost effective to me.

Ill just skip the bearing & Bolts then & add the 100MAF. I think my motor is still fresh with barely 15K on it ...

In response to the quote that you had quoted, dude you are going to want to spin this thing to probably 7300, if not more. My setup with a 228/232 cam, 5.3 heads, and an LS6 intake peaks at 6600, and I shift around 6800. With your donkey dick cam and heads and big intake that thing probably would do best singing around 7500, no joke.

HOW much $$$ would I spend just to beef the bottom ? Another 1500$ on parts & a month to Install ??
