Beginning to get together a parts list...

Has anyone ordered a motor from www.strokermotor.com?

I am planning on getting their 383 but i will have many things changed so it can be well built for supercharging. This is what i need help on.

What 'brand' pistons would you guys recommend as the best? I understand they'd have to be forged as well as the crankshaft.

Are hydraulic rollor cam and lifters the best quality/performance u can get for a cams and lifters? What kind of cam would be required for supercharging and the compression should be around 8:?:1 ? or am i way off?

they also offer packages on top of motors:

Package 1
DES
5140 Forged steel crank, 6.0" I-Beam rod, KB pistons, plasma moly rings, performance bearings, internal balanced
Add
$575.00

Package 2
DES
4340 Forged steel crank, 6.0" I-Beam rod, Lunati pistons, plasma moly rings, performance bearings, internal balanced
Add
$895.00

Package 3
DES
4340 Forged steel crank, 6.0" H-Beam rod, KB pistons, plasma moly rings, performance bearings, internal balanced
Add
$650.00

Package 4
DES
4340 Forged steel crank, 6.0" H-Beam rod, Lunati pistons, plasma moly rings, performance bearings, internal balanced
Add
$900.00


What specifically should i make sure of for a strong supercharged motor? I dont want ANYTHING at all breaking internally...

Oh forgot to mention, this motor will have a miniram on top of it:hail: Wll this change anything?
