Default Supporting mods for my cam...

Just ordered an F11 for my '98 T/A, A4, mods are SLP lid and cold air, edelbrock LT's and ORY into 3" electric cutout, 3000 stall converter+tranny cooler, bunch of suspension mods(shocks/springs/lcas/stb/phb/etc,etc.)

What else am I going to need to go along with the cam such as new springs/pushrods etc. I'm getting ready to order these things in the morning if I get some replys in time.. thanks.
Will be getting a tune soon afterwards also.

There are several sponsors that offer "cam" packages.

Youll definately need valvesprings. I like the gold dual kits. Youll also need pushrods. Id go for 7.425 to give you a little closer to stock lifter preload. Since youre a 98, you cant reuse your gaskets. Youll need a new crankbolt (and a long one to install with), youll also need a new front seal (crank seal), a front cover gasket and two waterpump gaskets. The LS1howto.com guide has a list and part numbers.
