Default Whats needed for install?

whats up, I have decided to put the tsp 228r in my car. I am also going to have lts and ls6 intake installed at the same time. My question is what am i going to need for the swap. My car is a 98 z28 with 91000 miles with an m6.
Here is what i am thinking so far,

228r cam on 114lsa
Ls2 Timing Chain
LS6 oil pump
Springs (not sure 918s or duals)
Titanium Retainers
7.4 Pushrods (I dont know what size)
Maybe lifters
Pacesetters LTs
Bosch 13111
Catted Y
Ls6 intake
Ls6 coolant lines

How does that sound. I am not sure if i should put lifters and if i do get oem or LS7 lifters. I also dont know if i should get 918s or duals, I dont mind spending extra money on duals if it will not lose power or hurt it. Please let me know what else i need.
thanks

Just get the cam package from TSP. them you'll have the rite springs,bigger pushrods and Titanium retainers that are matched set and you'll save money buying the package. Leave your lifters alone unless they are giving you trouble now. You really don't want to pull the heads just to change stock lifters.
