Question 500ft/lb engine build advice

Just some advice into what parts I would need to build a US STI engine to cope with hopfully 500/500 (realistically 450/450).
I have externals which should support this figure so just need to know engine internal parts that I will need please?

Heres what I know I'll need:
Pistons, rods, bolts, bearings, head studs, gaskets.

Cheers
Chris.

you would do well to speak to Mark @ Lateral Performance he would be able to answer all these questions and also do a good price on parts.

Thanks for the replys, Ive had an offer of a pre buit short block @ a pretty good price so might go down that route & just sell my current engine on.
