ok i just did my motor 5 months ago. I did all oem pistons - rings - rods with a hone it is not safe to bore .20 and run oem pistons and bigger rings to make up the .20 thats a easy way to get ring blow by. if you are on a budget like i was i would do a hone and oem internals. Have the head decked or shaved 20 thousandths and port and polish the intake and exhaust thats all stuff you can do yourself while youre working on the head have the valves re-seated again something you can do yourself. Also if you want to save $50 just get the C/S rocker arm stopers there just as good as greddy / hks .

just my 2 cents
