Yeah I'm doing a new water pump and Holley accessory brackets to clear the LS6 intake. Most likely going to run a 2010 and up Camaro water pump so that the inlet matches my radiator and I can run my truck balancer. I'm going to wait on the lifters for now, I'm not going to pull the heads until I can afford to do a set of ported ones, so I'll wait and do the lifters then. I have been talking with Martin at Tick Performance about a cam for my LQ9. I'm looking at his SNS TorqueMax line of cams and he suggested I run the LS2 stage 2 cam. I want a cam that makes good torque and power without losing to much on the low end and what I have seen from these cams on the dyno it is exactly what I'm looking for. Plus I want a cam that has a nice lopey idle. Should be fun to drive now I just need to get my tax return money back so I can order everything
