It is a very long and horrible story concerning my 5.0 for the last 9 months. Here is the short version that pertains to my questions:
The mechanic friend of mine who was to do a H/C/I swap on my car bolted everything on and started the car...WITHOUT cleaning the upper intake...which had been ported by Ed Curtis and had huge instructions on the box to wash it out before installation. Needless to say I have little aluminum pieces all over and around the pistons. The car has since been towed to another friend's garage. We're going to pull the block, and take things apart to have it honed and cleaned.
What do I need to put back into it to handle a 200 shot of nitrous? What kind of pistons, rings, etc? Do I need to do anything to strengthen the block? What about the rods? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
