Building Engine, Need Help!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im getting ready to order a lot of mods to build my engine and I wanted to know if i am missing anything or if anyone has any suggestions. I already have C & L Intake and Diablo Tune, Underdrive Pullies, 4.10 gears, and a TCI 3000 Stall Torque Converter.

These are the mods im going to have done:

CNC Ported Heads
Comp Cams: Stage 2
JBA Long Tube Headers and H Pipe
Prthane Motor Mounts
Manley Valve Springs
Carbon Fibor Drive Shaft
Charge Motion Plates
BBK 62mm Throttle Body
Zex Nitrous 75 Shot
BMR Subframe Connectors

Will I need a new radiator, fuel pump, water pump, and injectors?

What made you decide to forget about the blower? I bet you'll change your mind again won't you?

If you’re going to stay N/A the stock fuel pump will be more than adequate for the 75 nitrous but I would consider 39# injectors. I would get an electric water pump for the HP saving and I would also get the stage 3 or 4 cams.

Will probably go with the Stage 3. Thanks.

If you are planning on spinning this engine to high RPM, which I expect you will given these mods, you REALLY need to use forged rods. The pressed powdered iron rods will not last long with continuing high rpm operation. When a rod goes, so goes the rest of the short block and maybe even further damage than that.

Good luck,
