I have the engine ready, what will I need to upgrade before putting the beast in. I know I need fuel pump, wires, plugs, injectors, a badass tune, LCA's, a better torque arm, but what brands etc do you guys recommend. Thanks.

*Engine is fully modified ported and polished. Stock valve sizes.

 

This is a 4.060 bore engine with the 3.750 crank and a 5.7" rod.

 

I just bought a BMR Trak-Pak, talked to their tech last Tue who gave me the skinny on the differences between it and the Extreme Tq Arm. I'm not going to be in 8's for a while unless I go nitrous which I have no interest to at this point on the new build.

Kind of depends too on what your goals are. I mean you'll want a good clutch setup, consider doing your T56 or Auto (built), upgrade the driveshaft, mine will be done tomorrow and I'll post you some pics/specs, rearend will need to be upgraded if your planning 4k launches on drag tires.....

post your goals
