Am I missing anything? H/C/I swap Getting ready to order all the crap for my little bolt on session. Let me know if I'm missing anything.
83-AFR-1510 AFR 205cc LS1 Cylinder Heads with 66cc chamber assembled with 2.02" / 1.60" Valves, dual coil valve springs(.600" max lift), and titanium retainers. $2275.00

142-30-54023 F.A.S.T. LS1 Fuel Rails w/ Hardware $199.99
142-54028 F.A.S.T. LSX 3/8 to -6AN Fuel System Conversion Fitting (This is a 3/8 push connect coupling for a OEM fuel line to convert it to a -6AN Male fuel fitting for use in conjunction with the FAST Fuel Rails) $37.99 $37.99
20-12602540 GM Coolant Plug $10.58

142-54001 F.A.S.T. LSX Intake Manifold, fits 78 mm Throttle Bodies $795.99
142-54009-8 F.A.S.T. LSX Intake Port Seal (Set of 8) $25.99

119-H1294045S Cometic MLS Cylinder Head Gasket, LS1 Engine, .045 thickness, 3.905 bore (sold individually) $84.99 $169.98
99-PR7400 Thunder Racing Heat Treated Chrome-Moly Pushrods, 7.400" (Stock length LS1) $109.99
Order Total: $4480.94
Couple things im not sure of was the length of pushrod I'm going to need, the thickness of the head gasket (going to be running 91 octane, dont want too high of compression) or if some of the hardware i ordered is not necessary. Let me know what you guys think of this combo, seems like it should perform well after a tune and be smoggable. Once I get the D1SC complete, I'll be swapping in a different cam. Also it seemed like the 90/90 would be overkill for now, as it will be a few months before I get everything together for the D1.

The same reason why I'm not going with a ported LS6/5.3 head. I have plans to go with a 402/408 after the stock short block lets go on the D1. It makes more since to go with the 78mm fast for several months while i build the stroker and then buy the 90mm top piece/TB when I install it.

Seeing that its a 98 I am sure there are some decent miles on the car...Upgrading or replacing the lifters would be a wise choice as well...As mentioned, injectors plus plug and play upgraded fuel pump...I would hate to see you spend that money and be short on fuel...Some Ford SVO 30's would be good for $250 and fuel pump for about the same...Just for piece of mind...

90/90 would be great. you need the gaskets for the cam swap. front cover, water pump gaskets, oil pump o-ring. My car put down 430/403 with that set up.
If you are going FI, I would do it first. The $ is close to the same, and the rwhp from the procharger can't be touched by the H/C.

SVO 30lbs here and I didn't need a fuel pump, stock one was fine. I did the lifter while I was in there easy and about under a 100.00 bucks, I would do the timing chain 95k well worth it. If I had to do it all over a agian I wouldn't do the 90/90. I'd use the grand to invest in a rear end.
