Default Ordering internal parts. Advise needed

Ordering internals this week but still trying make final decisions on parts but this is what I am thinking Kellogg crank , Manley rods (1200 hp rated) Probe Pstons and rings with and every thing gets ceramic coated. The piston will be 9:1 c/r as is a F1-a 20 psi set up.Looking for final input . Thanks billy[/align]

If youre running 20psi you need a 8:5 compression

How do you determine what compression for boost? Is there a generally accepted "chart" per sey?

8:5? Do you mean 8.5:1??

Never go cheap on internals, but I'd get a built longblock with the 03/04 cobra setup like MMR's got. And shelf your stocker motor with all the fluids drained wrapped in plastic for a rainy day

Thats what my engine guy said to but JPC is going to tune the car and Justin and there buildersaid 9:1 . Lower c/r with a big blower and big boost would allow me to run more timming on lower octane though wouldnt it ?
