    I am starting my top swap soon. I plan on running a 3.8" pulley. Nothing serious.

    Here is my parts list:
    -L67 lower intake manifold
    -L67 Heads
    -M90 Supercharger
    -L32 fuel injectors
    -L32 fuel rail
    -Idler Pullies
    -Bracket to mount coil pack
    -Harmonic Crank Balancer
    -Coolant Elbow
    -Valve Covers
    -Supercharger Belt
    -PCM retune
    -Valve Cover gaskets
    -Head bolts
    -Plenum Gasket for L67
    -Rocker Bolts
    -TB gasket
    -TB adapter
    -180* thermostat
    -Supercharger O-ring
    -1 step colder plugs
    -Head Gaskets

    Does that sounds like a 100% complete list?

    Also here are a couple of questions about the swap that I was just curious about?

    1. Will I need to modify the Gen III supercharger in any way?

    2. I have an electronic throttle body. Do I need the L67 TB or can I keep the one I have?

    3. What exactly is the harmonic crank balancer? Do I need this?

    4. I JUST replaced the LIM gasket with the new aluminum one, do I NEED a new LIM gasket set? Are they different on the L67?

    5. I heard some GTPs have 2 belts. With the setup I am going with will I just need a longer belt or will I have 2 separate belts?

    6. Will I need any wiring harness for the MAP sensor?

    7. Do I need to upgrade the fuel pump since I am using larger injectors?

    8. If I understand correctly the L67 uses a return style fuel system. Now I will have L67 injectors and rail, will I maintain a return-less fuel system?

    9. Someone mentions o-rings for the GEN III supercharger. What are these for and do I NEED them?

    10. Do i reuse my L26 exhaust manifolds? Basically do my L26 manifolds bolt up to the L67 heads?

    I really hope you guys don't think I haven't searched. I couldn't find the answers to these specific questions. If I am missing ANYTHING in my build please let me know. I would like this to go as smoothly as possible. I also am very willing to take pictures to help other out.

    Thanks for the help!
