you can't use gsr rods in an ls with the ls crank, you would have to use the gsr crank. as for the oil taping ---- go to www.c-speedracing.com and look it up. you need to use a 96+ oil pump (they are all the same) and you wont hit 200+ hp without alot of money. but you can put the type r pistons on the LS rods. for an ecu you would want to use a chipped p28 or a p72 (gsr ecu)and i would just use a set of type r cams or CTR cams.

Are you going to turbo it. Cuz if you do then you will have way over 200 hp. If not then you might want to have the head ported and polished, flow tested and High compression pistons and the cam like you said. The more air in and the more air out the better with N/A. Port match all places where gaskets are. Throttle body, intake manifold, exhaust manifold. Everything should be nice and smooth. Then when it runs take it to the dyno and see what she throws down. It should give you around 200 horse if you do it right. Make sure you find the right cam. If you don't you could have less Hp than you could and you wasted alot of money.

might want to add ARP head studs and rod bolts to the combo.
