Default Best rotating assembly for a procharged LS2?

Ok guys im in the process of building the bottom end of my LS2 and wondering whats the best rotating assembly for my F1A procharger? Looking at the lunati and callies but what are you guys running? Shooting for a street friendly 750-950hp. Thanks for the help!

370 w/ f1a here. Looking for around that power level. I've got stock crank, k-1 rods and wiseco turbo duty pistons. Kinda wish I would have stuck one of k-1's stock stroke cranks in there but oh well.

Ive read alot of guys are running the stock crank at those power levels without problems but i figured while i was in there I might as well put a forged crank in it like a compstar or something.

Stock crank will be find. I'd do some diamond pistons and callie's rods and be done with it. Keep stock cubes to keep the blower efficient and add some meth for cooling.

I believe in over building if possible because we always end up going for more power at some point. I hate doing things twice. I just built my LS2 using , caillies dragonslayer, caillies ultra billet rods, and wiesco pistons.

This is my LS2. Its only a 20k motor. My engine builder pulled it out of his personal GTO and put a iron block 6.0 in it with a procharger making over 900hp. This is what it looked like when we pulled the heads.
