Default New project

Well I was driving to my father in-laws house Thanksgiving night and my car quit on me.. It didn't want to restart, but I finally got it to crank.. bam knocking and misfiring. I limped around the corner back home and towed it to the shop Friday morning. Pulled it out today and found 3 bent pushrods and evidence where the valves hit on 7 pistons, lol... so it's time for a rebuild. Tell me what yall think about my plans.

I want to run the stock crank with forged rods/pistons..

Bore to 347
Wiseco 3.905 -3.2cc flat tops
Eagle H-beam rods
MS3 cam
PRC 5.3 stage 2.5 heads
PRC Dual spring kit
TSP hardened pushrods
TSP ported LS6 oil pump

Car doesn't see a whole lot of track time and is a DD.. The only thing I'm not sure about is what head gasket to run. I don't want to flycut, but I want the highest compression I can get with that setup.
