No need to do the rods as they are already forged but they do recommend shot peaning them and the crank.....sigh....man this is getting expensive. So I thought I may just add a 75 hp shot of NOS instead. Anyone else doing the same? Looking for feed back.

There's a guy in Edmonton (Matthew knows him I think) whose blown up at least two 6'ers with a V8 procharger. Apparently now he has all forged internals and it's holding together and making decent power.
I've also seen a s/c'd 6'er at the Home Depot shows. Someone makes a kit now. Don't know if you need to go forged with that one or not.
