Default Do I have everything?

I got the cam
I got the springs
I got the retainers
I got the pushrods on the way
I am about to order my UD pulley.
I need to order my PCM from Wait4me (should I get it pre-tuned by him?)

Is there anything else I'm missing? It's going in my '02 M6 SS w/ a lid and cutout. I can't afford long tubes right now so i'm hoping I can pick up a daily driver soon or not hurt it without the tune while using the Jet Hot Performance chip that's in it now.

Dont need an oil pump. But definately I'd go with a chain, I did the LS2 myself. Just make sure you get that Oil Pump Pickup Tube O-ring. Dont reuse the old one, and make sure the new one doesnt get pinched!

Replace the valve guide seals while you're in there. Shim the oil pump spring - same deal, while you're in there.
