Default Coming up with a list here...

Of stuff I'll be needing for my FI build. Feel free to add, as I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

347 Rotating Assy
Machine work
Cam? (I currently have a 228r, that might be okay? You FI guys tell me)
Hotside (friend is fabbing for me)
Coldside (local shop/friends helpin me out there)
Intercooler (Probably a generic eBay one will be fine)
Alternator relocation bracket
Truck manifolds
Precision Turbo 76mm
Another walbro 255 (I already have one, think that'll be enough?)
Misc lines fittings (i.e-feed/return lines/fittings for turbo, -10 line for fuel feed)
MAP sensor
Injectors
Fuel Pressure Regulator
Already have a wideband, need to get a boost gauge/boost controller.

My plan is a built 347 w/ a truck manifold 76mm running about 15lbs on pump.

Once again, feel free to add, I'm SURE I'm forgetting ****. Just brainstorming at this point.. Next few months the ball will get rolling.

depending on what route you are taking.
Stand up radiator and fans
oil temp guage
trans temp (if needed)
new clutch or stall for the turbo
317 to lower compression
Turbo k member (to make it easier to work on)
Battery relocation (cut off switch)
fuel pressure guage
Wastegate
blow of valve
comp 918's
hardened push rods
thats all i can think of right now. post up what you have already as well. Somesuspension parts will be helpful I.E. subframes, torque arms.....yadda yadda. Also your going to need some tires if you already don't have them.

I thought I had thrown radiator in the list, but that will be done, and it'll be stood up with pusher and puller fans.
I have a monster 3+, that should hold until it's time for a th400.
The motor will be built for 9.5:1 compression with the current heads that are on it.
I have a Fuel Press Gauge (car is currently bottlefed)
I will need a w/g and a bov
I have springs and pushrods.

The car already has:
TEA Stg. 2.5 5.3 Heads (previously on a boosted 408 car, he went low 9s on 20+ lbs with them)
TSP 228r cam
150 shot of n2o
Monster stg 3+ clutch
MWC Fab 9" w/ 3.90s (The gears will have to get swapped out for sure, I know that)
Tq Arm, LCAs, etc etc.
