Default Sebring mod list for DD

Ok, this is my DD right now, and I'd like to take it to Sebring some time. I want an opinion on the things on this list that I need.


Improved Racing oil baffle
Strano bars
eaton posi, or lightweight 9?
Oil cooler
Alignment
Watts link
c5 brakes? or brembo blanks with hawk ceramics?

I already have kyb agx's, strano springs, fidanza aluminum flywheel and 4.3 clutch, tick master. I'm just wondering what else I should look out for since it will be running sustained high rpm's. I'm guessing I'm going to need an oil pressure gauge and temp sensor

Heres the track map

Someone feel free to chime in but I really doubt the stock oiling system is up for the task of sustained G corners w/ high RPM.

What kind of tires do you plan on using/what g levels are you going to be seeing? I think that is the main thing.

Well I would hope the baffle will help with high g turns, I plan on using nitto nt05s

There's an informative thread over in the Road Race forums about the LS-1's oil system vs. road racing.

Plus there's alot of other good threads on setting up an F-body for road racing there as well.
