Default Doing a cam install, have questions need answers

2001 Camaro SS m6 16,700 miles with following mods
- ARH headers and y-pipe
- Cutout
- Magnaflow exhaust
- MSD 8.5 wires TR55 plugs
- SLP air lid & K&N air filter

Car put down 347hp and 367tq 13.1 a/f ratio

Ordered from Thunder Racing the following:
- TR 230/236 112 LSA
- Patriot Extreme Dual Valvespring kit
- Ti retainers and 7.400 pushrods
- Manley Double roller timing chain set

Will be ordering still:
- Melling high volume oil pump
- ASP 25% underdrive pulley (no alternator pulley, will most likely use stock one)
- Camshaft installation gasket kit
- Replacement GM crank bolt

Was wondering if the Racetronix plastic fuel tank fuel system and Racetronix 42lb high impedance flow matched injectors would be wise to get as well.

Just looking for opinions/criticism on parts, and/or suggestions on the setup. Hoping the car will put down 410-420hp to the wheels after all is said and done with a new tune of course.

Thanks all!!

Get the Racetronix kit(pump and hot wire kit) for sure. You might be okay on injectors since the 01-02 cars have the 28s. Your tuner will be able to tell you what the duty cycle is and then you can decide if you need bigger injectors
