Because for $1500, you can build the bottom end of that D to kick the shit out of a stock B on boost. Your post did not help with the question at hand so you shouldn't bother to reply.
Now, back to the topic. You can get some SRP pistons and Eagle rods for around $700 new if you look around, then some ARP head studs and you are ready to boost the hell out of that thing. I would also recommend a ZEX cam and valve springs.
