Vindicator
I am putting a Vindicator into my 120k LS1(yea, I know). I am going to be ordering:
Cam, Timing Chain, Oil Pump, Gasket Kit, Springs(springs, locks, seals, seats, etc), Pushrods. Am I missing anything? Anything else I should add? I am probably going to try to get an underdrive in there too.
Do I need a double roller, or is a single fine?

rocker arms wont give you any gains really, just help from losing a bearing.... lifters i would go ahead and swap them out its cheap precaution and do the drill mod to the lifter trays while you are at it

Drill mod? I won't do rockers right away, because of money issues...but I think I will do the lifters. I'll come back and do the rockers in a bit, since they are pretty easy.

the drill mod is something you do to the lifter trays to prevent oil from pooling up..... so basically you drill small little holes cant remember the exact measurement for them????? but it allows the oil to not pool up in the trays

Well, I don't feel like pulling intake/heads. So lifters will stay.
