That build is quite high end compared to mine!!! Since I'll be using the factory ECU too (with HP Tuners 2 bar SD tune), there's really nothing to compare from that build to mine.

I may add a small cam (z06) if I can find a used one cheap, but that's about it. Everything else will pretty much be stock 5.3 except the head gaskets (LS9) and stock replacement rings (top ring gapped to .028"). I won't even replace the bearings unless they need it. If I find some nice 243 or 799 heads, those would be hard to pass up, but so far nothing close to the extent of that build.

I've got the wiring how to's from the LT1 site and saw a video posted by someone on our site here a few years ago that walks through that how to piece by piece pretty much.
