Is the garage ceiling unfinished or is there drywall or will you be adding drywall? I assume by "14" across" you mean 16" centers. What do you mean by "firm the load" with plywoood? The 8 foot strips of plywood won't do any good to reenforce the joists because the plywood is not continuous. Do the 2x8's span the garage or is there a beam down the middle of the garage ceiling now? Do you have a gable roof and if so will you have adequate head room in the bedroom? What about windows? Will you have to add dormers?
