T-rex ok here's the deal i am building my ls1 up to make as much N/a power as possible. but i dont want to wait to do everything at once. here are the plans
next week Moser 9" and 255lph fuel pump.
with this could i put the T-rex cam, dual patriot springs, TT retainers, l-7 locks, beefer pushrods. in with the stock heads and intake and see pretty good numbers? i am planning on going to Fast90 intake and TB or Ls2 intake and Fast 90 tb w/ bigger injectors and AFR 205 or 225. i am wanting to make as much power as possible so you guys tell me what yall think.

it does say that "comp r lifters are required"...but from what i've read, we'd be better off sticking with the stock rockers as the comp rs have been problematic.

The T-Rex works fine with stock pistons, heads, and lifters. I know this first hand
I'm not sure if you said it before, but do you have a set of long tubes? You said you'd be putting it in with the stock intake still, but you mentioned upgrading that which is good. But if you don't have headers, get them first!!!
