Ok, i finally ordered the finishing pieces! Next week in my newly aquired garage i will be installing:

Cartek 2X cam 224/228 113 LSA .590
25% powerbond UDP with arp bolt and belts
Vararam, sealed to the hood of course
85MM Maf
COmp cams trunion upgrades
Comp cams magnum 7.4 hardend pushrods
Lunati dual .650 lift spring kit (Springs, retainers, valve locks, seals and spring locators)
I have already ported the TB, and port matched the intake to the heads, but i may go a bit further with that.
And of course it will be getting tuned by 06X6spdGTO. Then dyno tuned later this summer.


I also have a set of SVO redtop injectors, but i see no need to install them, might as well save them untill i need them.

Obviously i know there is going to be a difference, but im just to damn excited now. Have to wait on parts I sure hope this wakes my lil LS1 up a little :usa:
