I'd personally rethink the Patriot stage 3's. At least get some PRC's from Texas Speed. They have killer prices for ported stock heads or even aftermarket. Their 2.5's make good power, whether ls6 heads or 5.3's.
The SLP tips are going to look tiny. Get a set of corsa clones. Check out eworldsales1 on ebay.
Don't forget the hotwire kit with the pump.... Racetronix is great.

If you're doing motor mounts, at least get a new rubber trans mount. Or poly... you're choice.

Don't forget the trunion upgrade if using stock rockers, as well as new PR's

Don't forget lifters. Ls7 should do.
Might need new cam retainer plate since that gasket is built into the plate.
My timing chain cover gasket came with water pump gaskets.
Front and Rear main seal
