Thread: Cam Install - Anything missing?

I am finally going the cam/e85 route after not being satisfied with a rocker/93 octane setup. Just making sure I am not missing anything. Here is a list of what I already have.

XP Cam
140# valve springs
Mod'd steel retainers (this is my daily for now)
Comp Cams 7.00 rods
LS7 lifters
Cam Install gasket kit (ZZP)
Double Roller
60lb injectors
Walbro 255 fuel pump
3.0" pulley
Fuel pump rewire kit
Oil/Oil Filter
Coolant

Yea, after I purchased the 3.0 I almost returned it for a 3.2, I think to be safe I will order that just in case I need it. And good call on the machined oil pump cover, my engine builder said he was going to machine the gear so I dont need the machined cover.

I don't think I would change the pushrods, unless you are going with a stock length. I would be curious what length pushrod you would need if you used the 1.9 yella terras with the xp cam, or if it would be too much lift for the stock heads. I thought you were going to get 80 lb injectors for the future e85.

I think the valve guides need to be milled to for different length pushrods
