Valve springs, I recommed CC 918's. Also will need push rods, Ive heard of people using stock injectors with that cam but the gains arent as high. SO basically I would say:
*springs
*pushrods
*injectors
*RR's
*Tune

Im assuming that you already have headers, and a stall if you have an A4.

I have pacesetter longtubes and a 3500 stall. would you guys suggest comp pro mag or crane golds 1.6? Do I need non self aligning? probably comp hi-tech pushrods 7.200? Should I use lt4 gears and timing chain? Im probably gonna go with a electric waterpump.
