New crank? new bearings? new cam? new rings... fuck. Take a page out of the book of Chiltons. NOTHING gets replaced unless it is out of spec. You're building a motor, not a china doll collection.
Yea...thinking like that is what engine builders love......

Always build the short block the BEST you can afford..then go up a step or two.

Oh yea, one more thing......I do not know of one TRUE engine builder that uses Chiltons for building an engine

I may not have your experience, but you know I can build an engine. Case in point, the last two times I melted a piston, I ordered just the one piston, just the one ring set, just the one rod bearing, copper sprayed the MLS HGs to reuse them... and you saw it, my motor runs like a champ. Spent prob $130. If the rest of the parts are good, why junk them?
