Default LS7 Build Startup Questions

Hello everyone I am a little new to the Building game but I wanted to get a few opinions before starting.

I have a 08 Zo6 with ECS 1500 Supercharger kit 4psi, headers and x-pipe. I am making right under 700whp and keeping it there because I know the stock LS7 can not handle much more than that.

My question is I want to start building it and making more power so I want to know what I should start replacing in my motor to make it stronger and handle more than stock my goal is 850whp.

Thanks guys appreciate the advice

Pistons, cylinder liners, rod bolts. Connecting rods somewhere along the line after the first three.

Kinda depends on what you plan to do to the engine, N/A/boost/turbo/spray/peak rpm.....

Well the car already has the ECS 1500 supercharger kit and I plan on keeping it on there just adding more boost in the future.
