Default Need a little help guys...

So... now that im caught back up on some expenses and I can finally get back to finishing the Iron 5.7 build I am looking to buy all new main, and rod bearings, and a fresh set of piston rings.

What brands should I go with and what are some good links?
The motor is a 3.898 bore and is going to be a H/C setup on a 100 shot.
Stock rods an pistons.

Thanks for the help in advance

Good lookin out man! I honestly don't think there is a better deal than the polydyn coated ones. Guess im going with them. Plus i know the clevites are proven. Its cheaper than the OEM ones.
