Default boom!!!

so yesterday my stock bottom end decided to let go
so now im in a pickle on what to do.
thinking of doing a 370ci iron block by tsp. spraying a 250-300 shot through 2 kits.
how do the 370's respond with spray???
im gonna be running heavily ported 243 head, which cam do you suggest, i was thinking ms4 cam. would i need to fly cut the pistons?
im thinking +12 dome pistons with 62cc heads to bump the compression up...
what will my final compression be?
and what is a reluctor wheel?
here is a link to the motor.
and suggestions what my options??
see link below....

Nitrous loves compression! A built motor will handle it unless you get greedy

Id figure out why you broke it before moving on to something new and doing the exact same thing.

goodluck

Like camscam stated, he needs to figure out why his stock bottom end let go before spending $$$$ on a new motor. It'll happen AGAIN if he doesn't.

370's work great. we have a few running around. can put a hellova good nitrous piston on the stock stroke. Spend the time to research guys running small cubes and big nitrous and get a good game plan(whole car) if you throw somehting togeather you will be making this post again...... And the tune is at fault probably 90% of the time.
