CRANK: Eagle 4340 Forged
RODS: Crower 5.7 Stroker Sportsman
ROD BOLTS: Crower
ROD BEARING: Clevite
PISTONS: ARIS BLOWER PISTONS

Wise words. My receipe may call for a little different brand names, but pretty much would have to agree with every word there.

Only think I'll mention, the link to the heads didn't work, which head is it and what is the chamber size? Here's why ,,, A 350 w/ a 6cc flat top piston that has 8.6:1 compression with a 76cc head (most likely with a crate motor) will increase to 9.6:1 ehen you change to a 65cc chamber of most of the AFR non CNC line. You stroke that same motor to a 383 and use the flat top pistons you linked,,, and you have 10.41:1 static compression.

I don't know diddley about running E-85 and a blower, even with LOW boost I suspect 10.4:1 is going to be a VERY finicky combination.
