Which pushrods to install FM11 w/stock heads?
Going to get either an FM11 or FM13 cam. I already have a PRC Gold dual spring kit, and need to know which pushrods to get. Also, should I get one of those Thunder racing cam install kits that come with all the gaskets in one shot, or is there a better way to go about it?
Thanks,
Kevin

If you are not taking the heads off (like to change lifters) then just the basic gasket bolt kit (water pump gaskets, front seal, head cover gasket, pulley bolt)
Also what year is your car? perhaps you're going to need an oil pump and O rings + a timing chain (LS2)

Since it is a 99, i would change the chain (get LS2, it is the official replacement chain now) and at least a replacement pump (it is the updated LS6 pump)
Less than a $100 for both from SDPC>>>>> sponsor.

Very nice info. I will be doing the same thing here pretty soon. Not to steal the thread or anything but what cam would you guys recommend out of the 2 with N2O? I cant decide which one to go with. Well let me know how the install goes. Thanks

They carry both and have the best prices.
Ask for a LS2 chain and a stock LS6 pump

Call Kris Jones @! SDPC tomorrow and ask him for an LS6 pump, let him know you're doing a cam install so he knows exactly what you're talkin about. It should only be ~70 bucks or so. He'll take care of you.
