My point is you've got all the bragging rights; and budgeted $21 for sparkplug washers...but no fuel pump.
Its the little incidentals that are going to kill you. Skip the bare block, et al. Buy the vortec crate long block. Its already a roller cam engine. Put a vortec-specific intake on there and a mid-lift roller cam. It needs an electric fuel pump.
You have a torque converter listed, but will this work with your rear gear and your cam to make a well thought out system?
