Default Where to get rods & pistons?

Where can I get the BEST deal on rods and pistons? Reasonably priced for a 421cu. 8.5:1 compression, 4.030 bore, 4.125 stroke. For boost.

Skip the 4.125" stroke for boost, you'll have no compression height.

I would run a 4" stroke. With a 4.125" stroke you're looking at CH in the 1.05" range, not a lot for a boosted motor. Will it work? Yeah it probably will...will it be optimal for piston strength? Definitely not. With a 4" stroke you still can get a 1.1X" ch usually.
