Building New Motor

[Rockstar04]

I recently lost a rod bearing in my 1990 Talon TSi AWD, so I am going to put the motor I was going to build for my racecar in it.

Here are the specs:

Flat-Top Wiseco pistons
6-Blot Crank
6-Bolt Rods
Freshened head, OEM Spec
Stock 14b Turbo
Stock Fuel System (pump rewired)

What head gasket would you suggest?
What does everyone think?

Arp head studs and a cometic multi layer head gasket . Lots of vendors have these items.

Are those new 1g "big rods"? If they are where did you buy them?

I have 3 complete sets, I had those reconditioned.

I think a stock hg, will suffice just fine. The arps are ###### more important...

14b-turbo wont push enough air to blow out a stock hg.
