From what I've gathered, LS9 gaskets, head studs, cam, pushrods, valve springs, rocker trunion upgrade, NNBS/TBSS intake, 90mm tb, KB or trick hot pipes, BW turbo, meth inj, 4L80E, true trac, gears, mild stall, injectors (bigger than you think you need), BIG pump or duals, and SPOT ON TUNING . . . that will get you more than enough.

I forget anything? Please, experienced pros correct me if I am wrong/missed anything.

Do the LS9 head gasket just go right in or do they have to be modified?
