Default Time to start the HEAVY modding :)

Okay guys...it's time to start the "big stuff." lol
Well, i'll tell you what i'm shootin for...and all that.

Later this year, or early next year, I plan on buying a KB S/C. It'll beither be the 1.7 or the 2.2 Blowzilla. I'll be running somewhere between 9-20 (very top) psi. I know that before this I have to forge all the internals.

I know that I need forged: pistons, connecting rods. also, an aluminum camshaft, and new heads.

For the big questions...what brand should I go with? And, is that all I need (besides gasket kits).
I've been lookin at steeda and VT, and found some great stuff. But I dont know all that I need to. What compression will I have to run? What offset should the cam be at? All this little stuff, I need to know. I plan on getting the engine ported and polished in early june. Should I still do this even without any aftermarket stuff goin in it?

I need lots of replies, and lots of ideas....all of which will be appreciated
THANKS!

...do you actually read posts before replying to them? Every post I make about upping my engine is always "get a blower" or somethign like that

I am gonna get a blower, hence the reason I am forging the internals...
