Default Return from engine lab..

I just got my b18b1 block from engine lab. It was bored and honed .25 over for the use of the pr3 usdm b16 pistons. Decked and inpected and hot tanked. Next is the rods. What all needs to be done for them?

Also would anyone recoment micropolishing a stock ls crank? Or should I just leave it alone. I need to get the ls rods done asap. I already know about using arp rod bolts. And getting them shotpend.

engine lab does nice work. the problem is they know it and charge to much for it. the bore and hone is worth the money for good quality work. the decking and cleaning could of been done elsewhere cheeper.
