Arrow replacing internals on my KA to get it ready for boost

Hey guys if you know of any kits that replace the pistons, rings, head gasket, ect... that you would recommend for preping a KA to be turboed please let me know planning on doing the internals over the winter, and turbo in the spring. Ive search so dont flame me, and the only decent one that ive found was the boostdesigns nissan hp kit, but thats 1 grand, cant get that much fast enough. So if you guys recommend just buying every part separate, or kits that you admire please post them here. Much thanks, greatly appretiated.

They have some internals for your KA.... But if ur not looking to spend more than a grand, i wouldnt touch internals. Forged 8.5-1 comp pistons run about 500 a headgasket runs about 120 for a good one. Rods are another 500, ARP head and main stud kit will be about 300. And thats not including all the millwork u will have to get done to prep for ur headgasket.

If you are going to run under 400HP, you can use what are called the Datsun/Nissan z24 gouged 8:3 compression pistons. Super cheap out of any junk yard, or I believe you can get them in an overbore kit. When I look through the list of shops I will keep you posted. Hope the info helps.
