Default complete list

If i was buying a heads, cam, intake what extra's am i looking at? I'd have to add a ls6 ported oil pump, pushrods, gaskets, injectors, what else? Do i need to do fuel pump? What kind of ford injectors work and for low 400 what size injectors (425 rwhp range)

Your stock injectors will be fine if you dont plan on spraying.. if so might look into some 42lbs injectors to make sure you have enough fuel.. As far as your list a tune is a big thing you missing, your going to need upgraded valve springs, i suggest new lifters, i ported throttle body would add a few hp. With all that said your going to need a upgraded clutch if yours is still stock. Stock one will last for a minute but dont count on it. Gears would be a big plus as well. And thats about all i can think of....

I just look on the very safe side of things

LS2 timing chain, upgrade rockers and new lifters. Not necessary but nice addition. Some say Ford SVO 30# injectors because you are at the top of the duty cycle with stock injectors.

yea wasnt sure if i'd be close to the top of the duty cycle or not with a mild cam (between g5x3, vrx3, or tr230). I've heard people just doing springs, pushrods, and cam no chains or oil pump and never had issues. If i didnt got with a cam like the g5x3 were i'll be reving high as hell how necessary is that other stuff
