nice for a rebuild but your not going to hit 325 rwhp with just that......you gotta change your heads and intake as well

Nope that is just a rebuild kit like FivePointOhh said you need to get other supporting mods. 325 rwhp is a pretty tall order with trying to stay on a decent budget. You will need some good aluminum heads, Intake the E cam will not be big enough and you will need fuel upgrades.

Pistons in that kit are among the cheeseist out there, cast federal-Moguls.
Spend a little more money and get at least a forged TRW, Summit has them. I'd use a moly type ring also............
