Sounds OK, but why do you need the ARP Conrod bolts? Un-neccessary expense I would think. Get your rods resized and balanced also. For the cam, what brand? Best is to use a crane, and get a similiar gring to the Cossworth BD10.

Then the sucker will scream..

Contact PCMAN, he is also into the 2 ltrs engine.. He might be able to help.
