    Default just wondering..How does this sound for a nice budget build?

    I'm going to somewhat rebuild an LS block, and it should be able to handle becoming that of an LSvtec that's going to be a whole lot more reliable than my previous one was... But, i wanted to post up what i was gonna do to it and get opinions as to how reliable it looks like itll be. One shop told me that i could possibly rev it to 8k or 8,500 if i wanted but idk about all that... The stuff written in bold is what im going to put on this next one that i previously didnt install on my old lsvtec, R.I.P.

    LS block
    -stock rods
    -stock low CR pistons
    -oem main bearings
    -ARP rod bolts
    -GSR oil pump
    -hone cylinders
    -new piston rings
    -GSR water pump/timing belt
    -Balancing Bottom end
    -shot-peening LS rods

    Cylinder head
    -P72, fully rebuilt
    -new valve seals
    -re-ground valve seats
    -Golden Eagle conv kit

    I thought about trying to get my hands on some b16 pistons just to have a little bit of extra fun with it but idk. lol.
