Rods n pistons?
where can i find a good set of rods and pistons for a klze? and also what would be the best way to build it to run turbo and possibly a small NOS shot

if you want to build it for turbo, you dont want to get ze pistons, they are a high compression ratio. You can get aftermarket pistons with a lower comp ratio, or i recomend just getting some klde rods and pistons from a member doing a part out. The lower your compression ratio the better it will run on boost and the more boost you can run.

Or, if you haven't gotten the engine yet, you could just get a KL-DE and use it as is (or rebuild it if it has a lot of miles). One advantage, other than already having a more easily tunable compression ratio for turbo, is that you won't have to be paranoid that you are going to snap a valve retainer (Of course you could get $350 worth of titanium valve retainers for the ZE if you still want to use it or even just put DE retainers in it). Just make sure you get it tuned right. A good stand alone engine management system in combination with a good tuner is a good insurance policy for your engine.
