Just a few questions. I plan on rebuilding my motor this winter and here's the plan

new alum. 30. over pistons
resurface rods and crank
alphabet cam and new lifters
block bored and cleaned
exploder heads with a valve job
complete bearing kit

I want to keep the stock comp ratio because I would like to get a turbo in the future but not the near future. So I don't want to build a motor with 8.5 comp and not throw boost on it for a year.

My questions are: Which pistons would be best. I was looking at speed pro...
which cam would be best for this. (I have 3.55s intake and longtubes)
And is there anything else that i am really missing in this buildup?

thanks a bunch
