Arrow Starting A List For My Build ! ??????? !!!

Ok i have a donor block from a 95 and believe i have an idea of what parts im going to use for my 355, I will be going with the LE1 package with the 223/230 .565/.565 112 LSA Cam and im having the intake ported from LE to match. Now i need to start a list of everything I am going to need, Like gasket set, EWP, Oil pump. I have 3:73's already that i need to install and figure out witch stall im going to go with. I guess what im really asking is what are the small parts im going to need while doing the build. Once i start i dont want to be running around tiring to find this stuff. I just received my OTVC wires and my Opti has @ 4000 miles on it. Thanks in advance and let the list begain............

Yeah, but I don't know the part number for it.
If you have the cash for the coil per cylinder set up, go for it, but it costs BIG $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

The coil per cylinder kit? You mean where you can run LS1 coils and a LS1 PCM?
That 500 bucks is probably just for the crank and cam trigger. You would also need a custom wireharness that goes for like 850. Then you need a LS1 PCM (~100) and a set of LS1 coils (~125).
