4.00 Ross 2618 forged alloy pistons
Eagle 6.125 H-beam rods
402-CID displacement

Why not just get a lq block instead of sleeving.

You should be in the middle 500s.

You don't usually sleeve to just 4.0, it's usually 4.125. If you use your ls1 block you will have to do the wet sleeves. Alot of money there. Easier going to a lq9 iron block setup.
