Default good bad and broken

i am considering this vtec swap someone calls a mini-me. I have quite the mods done and adding at time of swap here is my list, tell me what you think.

ported.10 polished vtec head, stage 3 cam cut, aem sprocket, dual carb intake modded to dual TBI, +30 pistions polished w/gapless top rings, polished rods, crank HP crank berrings (couldnt find hp rods ), 4.2.1 header. still pushin the mt 4 speed, shift point 4k normal cycle, dual coil with MSD Dist cap and external coils linked series.

does that sound like disaster or fun?

no not for a mild build like that. Stock sleeves are good for over 300whp
