Decent set of :-
Forged Pistons
Weighted set of Forged Con Rods+ ARP Retaining bolts
ACL Race Spec Big End + Main Bearing Shells
V9 Nitrided Crank
New/Modified Oil Pump

That will give you a Strong Bottom End to support your planned external mods.

How much power/torque are you going for?

If you're at a stage where the engine internals are a worry, then a std gearbox would be too. You;'d need to budget a further 2k+ for a 6 speed or PPG.

Going to change the box aswell but buying all the mods needed bit by bit so indeed the wife doesn't notice want anything 400 bhp or over with torque around the same.

I can just see the conversation the first time the wife drives (or goes out in that)

"Husband dear, theres something wrong with the car"

"Really wife, whats that?"

"Its feckin super rapid "
