Sorry sometimes I get emails sometimes I don't about responses.

I couldn't justify the full forged route being the low target. I got 8 Gen4 rods and 8 Gen4 rods/pistons for $150. One piston was bad so I ended up buying another single off ebay. Mahle rings, and Clevite H bearins are waiting to go in after a dingle berry hone on 240 grit. This is favoring the Sloppy mech side of things. I was trying not to but I feel it'll get me down the road.

Other items like injectors (will prob get sent out or cleaned) and FPR to bring it back down.
