OK gentlemen. The motor and KB are going in in the next few weeks and i'm just making sure i have everything. Here's the list of everything going in the car, i don't want to start taking crap apart and finding out I'm missing something so help me out here. Forged stroker shortblock, Hi flow oil pump with billet gears, head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, intake gaskets, PI Heads, stage 2 blower cams (VT or Crower depending on if VT can supply VT Stage 2's in time), KB 1.7 14# Intercooled, 255lph fuel pump, 55#/hr injectors, boost a pump, spark plugs, 90mm MAF. This is the add on crap, not stock stuff that can be just moved over to the new motor. Am I missing anything crucial here or things that maybe i should replace now that it's coming apart? I don't think so because I've been planning this for a while but it's better to check now than later. Please help if you can. I should probably get new timing chains while i'm at it. All i can say is this piece of crap better haul ass when I'm done.

Thanks for the comments folks. It should be fun when it's done. I talked to my tuner and he said we should have no problems with tuning or any fuel issues so that makes me happy. Looks like I have to go with Crower Stage 2 or 3 blower cams. Vt's still aren't available and i can't wait anymore. As before if you see anything I'm missing let me know.

Whatever cam spec you get, ensure you degree them in. My TBird has the Crower Stg II PI cams in it and I found that the .581 lift was actually .585
