ARP head bolts, stock gaskets from GM are priced right and bad ***, i have a corner auto parts oil pump that works fine, F body oil pan or CTSV pan/pickup tube/tray, cannot remember what the heads being milled was, but it might have been 100$, i run the stock gears with a LS2 chain on them, the rest are stock bolts, AC delco wires, i have stock rod bolts hitting 7200 RPM, sponsores here carry all the MSD and intake components(GMPP), manifolds will work but will hold back power on the big end, but fine for temporary if you have to, i have stock truck pulley, change the springs, locks and retainers to match whatever cam you go with.
