How does this sound for a mild street combo included with 373s and the mods in my sig:
-GT40 y303 turbo swirl aluminum heads
- Cobra upper/lower intake manifold
-c&l 73mm MAF
-walbro 190lph fuel pump
-65mm throttle body(need suggestions on brand)
-1.72 roller rockers(need suggestion on brand)
- Running stock cam

Does this sound like a good solid street combo. Am i leaving any items out that i will need? should it perform well? thanks any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Also will the stock valve covers fit with the 1.72 Roller Rockers? thanks

Sounds good. Although unless you are trying to comply with emissions, or are getting a good deal, I would consider some used edelbrock performer RPM's (with the smaller intake valve), or some trick flow TW's.

The FMS tb's are tough to beat for the price; I picked one up used for $75, Accufab are generally regarded as being the best though; 65mm would work fine for you.
As far as roller rockers, if you want to keep your stock valve covers, go for the FMS or Crane's to be sure they'll clear. You may still need to remove the oil baffle and do a bit of 'clearancing' in the corners; but nothing too major.
