Default Help with engine parts needed please!

Here is the long and short of it....

Just getting into this whole LS1/6 fd swap.....dont know all the parts required for a "turnkey engine" for the swap and this is what I have so far:


2A) set of (8) coil packs, (2) coil pack mounting brackets that go on the valve covers, coil pack wiring harness and (8) plug wires for the motor (will work either F-Body/Vette style).

2B) stock water pump for sale (same for both F-Bodies and Corvette's) i

2C) the clutch/flywheel and will put the injectors and fuel rail in the box for no extra if you need them.

2D) stock fuel injectors (28lbs) and an F-Body fuel rail.

LS6 Block
LS6 rotating assembly (Crank/Rods/Pistons/New revised piston rings)
LS6 Heads - #243 Castings complete with valves/springs/rockers/pushrods
LS6 Intake Manifold
LS6 Oil Pump
Double roller timing chain
High Performance MTI Cam
LS6 lifters
Front & Rear Covers
Valve covers
Balancer (Corvette style)
ARP Rod bolts
ARP head studs
New head gaskets
I have an oil pan/sump/pump coming in as well

What else do I need/where to get it, such as pulley package, a/c, alternator..etc.

Thanks

Joe

You'll also need a PCM...I didn't see it on your original list.

Most (if not all) of the parts conan listed should be available from a dealer or from KJ at SDPC (sponsor) ----->
