Pump and injectors. A cam around the size of a g5x4 should get you close

Tranny cooler is a must if you don't have one, and trust me when I say get a very high quality stall like a Yank....I've grenaded 3 cheaper converters from not doing this

You should get those 241s worked on by AI if you wanna make 450 rwhp without buying a cam that is all top end....I don't think a fuel pump is a neccesary item (even though right on the cusp) unless you get awesome heads and a biggie cam...injectors are a must though for sure...good luck man
