I have an LT1 that I will eventually put in my 85 T/A. I was wondering if I rebuild it what all does the bottom end need to take the boost. I know I will use forged pistons, but what can the stock crank and rods handle. I have long tubes and dual exhaust already ready for it. I want to lower the compression and use a pretty good set of heads so I can run a pretty good amount of boost. I plan on driving it on the street, but dont have to pass emissions. What do you guys suggest?

Hey Ben! We have a separate forum just for talk about Forced Induction applications... I'll move this to that forum.
