Thank you! I really appreciate you, you always have the answers.

What would fix the problem? I think that the best thing to do is get that rotating assembly. When I put that rotating assembly in the shopping cart there's a drop down menu of different sizes. What size should I get if I decide to go with this? Do I need head studs or other parts?
Thank you! I really appreciate you, you always have the answers.

Why don't you call MMR and ask them for their recommendation?
And they can tell you all about the sizing options.
Better yet, why not just buy a short block or long block from them, then it will be all assembled and ready to go.

PLUS $1700 for the rotating assembly... It would be to handle 1,000 WHP.

I called Livernois... They don't like to install other peoples parts is what they said... They said they don't have rotating assemblies but already quoted me 2K in just parts and that doesn't include a crankshaft (probably another $500) Then labor there is always threw the roof...They're too expensive and they have to "throw something together" for me...
