Well guys I was finally able to pull my motor completely apart this weekend. If you dont remember I had a loud knock one morning on my way to work and the car didn't hardly want to run 
..
Anyways, here is my findings.
#1 was completely stacked I mean right on top of each other.
#2 perfectly fine :confused \/ \/
#3 Perfectly fine
#4 Perfectly fine
#5 Just spun 90*
#6 halfway stacked the bearings
#7&8 were perfectly fine.
My crank can be turned 10/10 and i can use it for my build.. Definitely wasn't as bad as i was thinking.

Well the buying spree has begun ..
Got my Wiseco Forged pistons today
-3.2cc valve reliefs.
Once i get my tax return i will be getting the LS7 lifters, oil pump, timing chain, and my Scat H beams
..
Im looking for a set of heads but im not for sure if im wanting to go back with my MS4 or not
.. I talked with PatrickG about it and i told him how much im going to be spraying. He told me that big nitrous hits like about 6 degrees of split in duration. Well the MS4 (239/242) is not very good for that. I was thinking maybe some stageII patriots bare .. Then just get PatrickG to custom spec me a cam for the heads. Im just wanting everything to match up.. Im racking my brain looking at CFMs and all that good stuff.
Bad thing is, my LS6 intake is going to prob be holding me back.. But i dont have enough $$$ to buy a 90/90 setup though.
