What's your power goal? With that turbo i would probably do something like a tu1 cam. The tu2 is more for larger cubed engines with bigger turbos and 700-800+ hp range. and those 60lbers will probably limit you at 600whp. You should get some 80lb or 96lb injectors if you plan on making more than that. And why did you switch to t56? Jw

Heads and springs are ok. For e85 i think those 60lb injectors will bee too small. How much boost do you plan to run? Because inn the 12psi range you'll probably hit 500+ whp. And that cam is to big. You will probably want the tu0 or tu1 cam.

Is the compression around 10.5:1 with the 243's? I'm not sure what cr you would get with the 317's but ideally you want 9-9.5:1 cr for boost. I'm guessing the 317's 72cc combustion chamber will drop your cr into the 9's so you will probably benefit from them. That way you have less chance for detonation
