VT has been backordered for a while but you can get them from Sean Hyland Motorsports or Modular Mustang Racing. Whichever floats your boat.
You can get the MMR high flow oil pump/gears for less then the VT oil pump gears...its a good deal. I was reading a few threads on other forums about how some builders think you don't need the gears on motors up to 500HP, but i'd personally do them for piece of mind.

I agree. When you have 10K-15K invested in an engine and blower what's another couple hundred bucks to ensure the engine doesn't go kaboom from oil starvation.

You will never get the HP you are looking for with that fuel system. You will have to go after market for an entire new fuel system. Dual pumps, new tank or modified tank. Your ECU won't like those 60# injectors either. You will be paying serious cash for a tune as well. just so you have an idea what your looking at. Honestly, htere is no such thing as a safe 550-650rwhp. You will be breaking crap all over the place. Be more conservative and look 400-500. I'm going done this road right now and have most of the crap you are talking about and it is not as easy as it sounds. A lot of things do not go well together and it takes time and cash to work the bugs out. I have a forged 306 with a KB 1.7 to install and I am still amassing parts. You are missing the billet oil pump gears which are a neccessity are the power you are looking for. You will need cams and better flowing heads as well. It is a lot of work and cash. trust me.
:stupid: I totally agree, go with a little smaller hp goal and you will be free of many a head ache imo. I'm going for 480rwhp goal in the near future and i think that will be quite enough for a badass streetcar, just think about that 480rwhp is around 560 at the crank, thats more than enough for me. But hey man more power to u if you want like 700+ crank hp:nice:
 
I emailed these guys.

End explained what I wanted to do and see what they would recommend and see what kinds price it would run. It would be nice if I could have someone build the motor for what I want it for and have it shipped and installed by a local mechanic. I asked for some estimated motor hp and hp with full boost from the supercharger.
