#28872 Engine management of course. Then a strong headgasket and ARP headstuds. Then dip into the block parts for more strength. Then fuel injectors if necessary.

I would be extremely careful with it in the meantime.

#28914 that sucks man for sure, but you wouldnt really need a cam to start off, there are other more crutial parts you will need...and $1000 should be a nice start. But before you really buy anything i would do LOTS of research!
