well i decided the slowness of my saleen clone must come to an end. The parts are in the mail from summit.

Car currently has these installed:
-E 303 cam
-o/r h pipe
-flowmaster axle back exhaust
-355 gears
-5 lug and rear disk conversion
-255lph fuel pump
-255/40/17s BFG KDWs out back and 245/40/17s up front
-lowered with ???? springs (its really really low)
-aluminum drive shaft
-electric fan
-tko 5 speed (unknown model but its pretty fresh)
-a/c delete with pulley
-bbk underdrive pulley kit

Going to be installing:
-TFS track heat heads
-crane cams gold 1.6 roller rockers
-TFS track heat upper/lower intake manifold
-bbk 70mm throttlebody
-FRPP 24# injectors
-summit 70mm maf calibrated to 24# injectors
-bbk ceramic coated equal length shorties
-optima red top battery
-msd coil
-msd billet distributer
-msd wires
-bbk fpr
-ron morris thermactor/egr/evap delete kits
-replacing this that and everything else that needs it i.e. waterpump hoses, misc sensors, etc.

Im sure im forgeting a few things from those lists but that should be the majority of it. Right now ive got the heads, intake, and factory headers off and im waiting on ups or fed ex to start dropping packages off. Anyone know what kind of numbers i should be seeing out of this? Suggestions? Will i need to get a dyno tune for something like this to run what it should or can i tune it myself via fuel pressure, plugs, etc?

Don't forget to do a timing chain, although, you might already have a newer one because of the E303 cam you have.

ARP will include the lube you should use with the bolts, and the torque specs for their bolts. At least they sent all that with my main studs.
