yeah, I just need to buy a checker spring, but I agree. I was hoping to play with a calculator to see how much cam gets me close. There are lots of C5 pumps available, I will do some research on what ppl making 5-600 are running. Haven't heard about the ZL1 pumps yet- will look on RA for prices

AMS will be delivering the new 408 short block tomorrow!
I ordered CNC LS3 heads from TSP for black friday: https://www.texas-speed.com/p-11742-...retainers.aspx
Ordered an 8721r1 cam from @Summitracing last night: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-8721r1
The links were pasted from my work browser, so I am sorry if they don't work, I can edit them tonight if thats the case
Total expense so far: 6278. Yay Corvette *eye roll*

Alright! Heads are here!
Gaskets and lifters ordered from WS6Store. Went with the Johnson 2116lsr lifters and Cometic .040 MLS gaskets
Building an order with RockAuto to close out the engine build, minus dry sump. Hoping to use my EOY bonus to get the dry sump kit, and then I will have a complete motor save for Corvette FEAD swapping from current engine

Mine 3! My dad and I had bets she was 'alternative lifestyle' until she married a dude....Though he's kinda 'zesty'.
What let go/was letting go on your other motor and causing the oil pressure loss? Hoping I can learn from your misfortune and avoid more frustration.
