Give Cartek (www.cartek.net) a call, they have a lot of experience in building forced induction/forged bottom end motors.

Contact MissZ06, he has a brand new A&A. He is getting a Supra so should get this cheaper than retail.

My recommendation is to find someone local that can be trusted to build the motor. Long distance troubleshooting gets old..

Your closer to NJ than me, I would RUN your car to ECS as fast as you can if you want one the best companies on the forum to work on your car.
