First off depends if you want to go N/A or FI - but his 10.1:1 compression pistons will give good drivability and strength for 8-9 psi on 93-octane gas - not to mention more power on a FI 3.5

I'm not planning on using his pistons, too much compression, but they are a good price.
just the crank rods and pistons, but if your into doing it cheaply, you might be able to re-use your old pistons if your going to use your 3.2 block. i do have those stock forged rods for sale, never used.

I already have a S/C and I/C will be here next week. I'm thinking the added torque from the extra displacement is a definite plus. Also, with the slightly lowered compression (10.2:1 vs 10.5:1) I shouldn't have much trouble running 10psi instead of 8.5-9psi.
I wonder how much my dealer would charge me. They've always talked about "stroking" this motor.

I'd venture to say with 11.0:1 or higher pistons along with a balanced and blue-printed botton-end, you could achieve 320whp NA.

No big deal, just curious.
My father-in-law now wants in on the NSX build which is fine with me; lowers my total costs. We may just leave the engine alone and run the twin turbo system and see at what point it goes south. Might be interesting to find out how much the stock J32A2 can take.

Can we use off the shelve pistons, rods, etc. I remember hearing that some parts are interchangeable/compatiable with K series Engines. I also went to King Motorsports and they said that NSX internals are also compatiable. This way save some money since not custom.
