Your best bet is gonna be a t3 super 60. Its gonna give you a good spool for the motor and its gonna support more power down the road should you want it (and you will).
well i figured if i was going to need rods i might as well do pistons and rings.. the engine has almost 150k miles on it and i didnt want to boost it on stock internals.. ill do a compression check and see where im at.
