Project 4.2L M112 v6 :Updated with pics!

Well i'm gonna start a motor build to do on the weekends and as money allows, so it's going to take some time. I'm hoping to prove you can be powerful and reliable. My engile will be built from scrach, from the block up to the M112 supercharger on top. Hoping to get it done and dropped in my car within a year and 1/2.

It will consist of:
3.8L block, honed and balanced
4.2L crank
Fordged pitions and rods.
Ported heads(not sure on what heads yet)
Ported intakes
M112 supercharger kit(found on 03 cobra's)
water/meth

I am doing this build as money allows, so it will take a while. Once it's done, i'm hoping to be arround 400-450rwhp in a daily driver. I will post pics as often as i get things done. First things first, I need an engine stand...

Edit:
Made a parts list. Here it goes.

2002 3.8L v6 block
.030" bore
4.2L crank (4.3L with the bore)
Scat forged 351/408W H-beam rods
ARP rob bolts
Wiseco forged 8.7:1 pistions
rings and pins
Stage 3 ported heads (260cfm intake/170 cfm exhaust)
1.94/1.56 Stainless Steel valves
CompCams 26981 valve springs(but thinking about getting stronger beehive springs)
1.7 ratio adjustable roller rockers
Hardened pushrods
2118/224 cam
SFI approved harmonic balancer and aluminum flywheel
Stage 2 clutch
Ported lower intake
Eaton M112 blower
310lph fuel pump
42# injectors

This is going to be one sick v6 once it's done. Cobra and bolt-on GT's beware.
