The weakest link is usually the Rods (95 % of the time or better) and rod bolts. Pretty much any 4340 forged rod is gonna handle 500 easily. The pistons are Manley Street Master .020 over bore.
I went with Oliver billiet with arp 2000's so I have no need for any of that stuff.

What'd the Manley's pistons run you? I will be ordering the same Mahle's as myfx4 but 16cc instead of flattop of course.
Doesn't Manley offer a .010 piston option though?
