stock rods, balance to within 0.1grams total and end for end (one cap was 7grams out!!) at uni using a dremel 
pistons are ACL 40 thou that i got in another motor.. they have maybe 0.5-1mm slop, but still work ok 
i have heard that the repco pistons are prone to cracking. i think the same goes for stock pistons (of which some were made by repco too) and i have seen some terrible stock pistons in stock motors!!!
i would recommend the ACL's even tho they have oil slots not holes... and from a warehouse like Nason, are about $100.
the rod bolts are re-used stock ones.
it sounds... good. the intake is noisier than the exhaust, but the valves aren't too bad. machining the towers retains the stock rocker wipe at high lift and i find mine are quieter than stock ones...
yeah, it screams  you would have heard it in the KE15 shitbox at dynoday5...
