Shouldn't the rod to stroke ratio be corrected too then?

I'll fix that too 
Edit: Ok, should be all fixed up and accurate to the best of my knowledge, lol.

Just called the machine shop and he said $180 to punch it out. Yes I want to run a ls6 intake on it for sure and I will probably run it backwards too. I found a 5.3 crank for a $100 bucks and do I need to get stock LS1 pictons and rods and run arp bolts in everything? And you guys would get some 243 heads? What would be a good cam for this setup, I wan't a big lope since this is no daily driver and what stall will I need with the cam?
Thanks guys
Thanks guys
