Default Cam Parts List?

Ok I have been looking around for quite a while and have been trying to put together absolutely everything i would need to put a cam in my car.
Like what seals and other misc parts that i wouldn't have thought of until i got it apart.
I realize, the cam, springs, retainers, locks, probably oil pump, and timing chain. But what i am wondering about is the misc things like bolts and seals.

Thanks

Michael

Cam, complete spring kit, front cover gasket, front cover seal, water pump gaskets, pen magnets or dowel to hold lifters up during cam swap, timing set is a good idea as well as a new oil pump, valve spring tool, torque wrench, loctite to lock the bolts in. I know thers a few other things in not remembering right now. All of the bolts can be resued.

If you are changing the oil pump, make sure you get some fishing line, to tie around the bolt, that way WHEN you drop it, It wont fall down into the oil pan.

Lock tight, silicone sealant, and an oil change.
