Please provide more details. What is the rest of your plan to get there? Custom turbo setup?

Maybe try the forced induction sub forum. The kind of people with the information you want tend to hangout there.

Why not just get a built shortblock from Full Blown, or get a motor built by Element Tuning?
They already know how to build our engines correctly for big power. There's a couple other outfits that sell built shortblocks as well. |

Yeah why wouldn't you just buy a ready built short block from say @FullBlown that takes out all the guess work.

You still need to figure out heads and most importantly - the tune. |

Figure out the heads? If he's only going for less than 500whp the stock heads have been shown to be fine. He asked about rods and pistons which is a short block, had he asked about heads I would've said stick with stock at his power goals.
FYI @D K I have a built engine and stock heads and 500whp which is what he wants

I've been doing some searching, is there any comparison's between these forged components. Example: why I should choose Manley rods over pauter, or vise versa. Same with pistons. Im planning on forged internals, and 10:1 cr

You haven't specified what sort of build you're after.
Plus, when people say they want proper quality items as part of an extensive project and make a point of 'reasonable price', this usually means that the price these parts are will be too expensive. |
