Anything I am forgetting for H/C install?
Anything I am forgetting for H/C install? This is what I have, should be everything...I've just never done a head or cam install before.
Meat and Potatoes
62cc Patriot heads
230/234 custom cam by Patrick
Valvetrain
7.400" Pushrods
.040" Cometics for 3.910 Bore
GM LS series camshaft lifter kit
ARP head stud kit
ARP rod bolts
Other Gaskets
2 Water pump gaskets
Crank Seal
Front cover gasket
Oil pump O-ring
The Rest
N-Motion Adjustable Timing Chain
ASP Pulley with belts
ARP bolt for pulley
30# SVO Injectors
Katech ported LS6 pump
At least it seems like it should be enough.

Be careful on the rod bolts. Some have had issues with bearings after they get torqued down. I second the extra fluids for the radiator & oil change.
Curious about the lifters you chose. I went with the LS7 lifters for my upcoming installs. Never heard of a lifter kit.

I notice you didn't say valvesprings, so I'm guessing they're already on the heads? You might want to replace your valve cover gaskets depending on what condition yours are in.

Here are the lifters everyone is asking about.

Thanks for all of the replies guys. This is helpful.
I've got Nittos and a 10 bolt right now....I'm a bit worried. I won't be able to afford the 9" for awhile.

Does that sound right? I was expecting them to be made by GM or GM High Performance.
