Default Boost build lq4

so I want to build a my first boost motor.here are the parts I have so far

1.)Ported NNBS Intake Manifold
2.)102 Throttle Body
3.)Ls7 Lifters
4.)P&P 317 Heads
5.)btr Trunion kit
6.)ls9 head gaskets
7.)6.100 Compstar rods
8.)Wiseco Forged Pistons 6.0 4.005 Bore 3.622 Stroke +3.20cc flat top K398X05"
9.)Stock Crank
10.)ls2 Timing chain
11.) Melling Oil Pump
12.) Arp Everything

Now what I'm needing help on is should I get a double timing chain or is the ls2 one good enough?

Also what bearings should I get for crank and pistons rods?

King or clevides do yall have a part number?

any advise on my set up so far?

ls2 one is good enough some go with KATECH C5-R TIMING CHAIN - HME-G68V-2

If it were me, this is what I would get for a 58x setup but double check the part numbers:

Cam Gear - 3 bolt cam sprocket (58X) 12586481
Cam Bolts - ARP cam bolts 134-1003
LS2 Crank Gear - 12556582
LS2 Timing chain - 12586482
Timing Chain Dampener - 12588670
Crank Pulley - ATI Performance Products ATI918628
Crank Bolt - ARP 234-2503

For bearing part numbers it depends on clearances.

You'll need to measure but a standard main bearing would be like 171-MS-2199H - Clevite H
Connecting Rod Bearings, again you have to measure but something like CALCB663HN-10 has 0.01 less clearance.
Cam Bearings maybe something like Dura Bond CH-23

King bearing would be perfectly fine also.
