Default Double checking my plans..

I have done plenty of reading & am pretty sure I have got it all figured out, but I wanna run it past you guys one more time to make sure I haven't missed something.

I am on the stock motor currently. Here is a list of the mods that I currently have to install & parts I know I still need. These will be goin on within the next few months.

Parts in possesion:
HSW single nozzle dry kit w/purge & heater
BMN nitrous controller w/first gear lockout
Comp 224/224 .581/.581 114 cam
Comp 918 springs
Polished Lingenfelter intake(currently being paid for)

Parts still needed:
TSP fuel pump upgrade
Lucas 42lb injectors
Speed Inc. billet fuel rails
TSP oil pump
TSP Chromoly 7.400 pushrods
LS2 timing chain
GM basic cam bolt & gasket kit

I believe I can use the stock seats & retainers with the 918 springs, am I correct?? If I have left anything off here please chime in. Also give me your estimates for approx. power I could see from this combo. I'm hoping for around 400RWHP thru the stock 10-bolt on motor only.

with that cam and intake combo realistically you will be around the 375-380rwhp before nitrous. Opt for the titanium retainers. You can never have too light of valvetrain components.

The fuel rails arent needed. Save your money there. Install those injectors on the stock rails. I made ~650 like that with those injectors but a different pump setup.

Well, I'm gettin some choice pieces for under the hood soon & some others painted, so the rails are mainly to finish off the look. I know the stock rails flow into higher HP applications than I will be at, but they are so pretty.
