#81842 so my little 1.5 doesn't have much life in it left so i picked up a gsr bare block with crank for cheap. i was planning on gettin eagle h beams or scat rods, rs machine p30 cast piston oem bearings arp rod bolts. bored over to 82mm stock sleeves. and thats my short block what do you guys think. for the head i might get a gsr and put sk2 vt and pro 2 cams or might leave it stock to save costs i'm looking for 200whp. i know power is in the head but i don't want to port and polish right now also would using ls crank and and rods b worth it or should i use the gsr crank with some h beams

#81902 I don't see the point in building the bottom and not the top. That's like a muscular guy without a brain.

#83297 You want 200+whp, your gonna need an 84x89, that 82x87 won't cut it.

B20 block
Rs machine itr pistons
I beam rods
Block guard
Type r oil pump and water pump

Gsr head
Sk2 valvetrain
Sk2 orignal stage 2 cams
Profab, sparks, rmf headers
2.5 piping on a 2.5 exhaust
Edelbrock manifold
70, 72mm TB
Injectors

You'll be at 200+whp with this setup

S300 is the way to go.
