Anything else besides what? What do you have so far?

Sure you could probably just shove it in and maybe never have an issue. I would at bare minimum upgrade my springs and even still I'd probably replace the lifters too.

You should be able to reuse the stock lifters. I used white lithium grease instead of assembly lube when I installed my cam. I think Troy has you covered otherwise.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

Might want to consider this tool. Saves on time and gaskets.
