The short block is being assembled i am going to put the cam head roller rockers full injectors push rods and lifters my self
-Heads and cam
I was going to go with advanced induction i just dont know what size cam and weather i should go with 190cc or 200cc

-Fuel Injectors i beleive ill need atleast 36# injectors
-1.6 roller rockers
-new push rods and lifters
-Pacesetter long tubes with y pipe
-im doing spintech exhaust single i just dont know weather i want 3.5 or 4
-stage 3 clutch to hold the added power
-PCMforLess tune
-3.73 or 4.10 idk which one i should do due to the highway driving idk what kind of rpm ill be pulling i normally dont speed so i stay around 65mph any input would help

Dont forget some guideplates with your roller rockers, the GM ones seem to line up the rockers better than others. I did not see the stroker kits they have available but I would look for a well known builder for your kit (Callies, Lunati, Scat, Eagle, etc.). I put these in order from what I have heard about each kit, they are in order from best to worst. Make sure to add extra money to your list because things always go wrong.
I just finished my build and had tons of problems from losing my oil pan bolts having striped header bolt holes and plenty of others. On your cam issue I would leave it up to AI or LE to help you with that. I have never dealt with AI but I have with LE and he is awesome. I think his LE2 package could get you to your HP numbers pretty easily. The pacesetter headers are awesome, I just installed mine with no problems. IMO you should look into a true dual exhaust setup because they flow better and sound better. And 3.73's would be good for your setup. You have a good setup listed and you should be happy with your final result no matter what you go with.

Now as faras iveread their is very little difference if any in the performance between single and true dual exhaust ik true duals cost more and sound better but as long as i used a big enough single it would be prolly round the same plz correct me if im wrong. because the spintech im ordering ik already sound sick plus they'll be loud since i dont hav to pass emissions by me so doing no cat.

This is where I learned about true duals and these are the exact parts I bought besides I bought bullet style mufflers (Which sound much meaner) http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku
I would go with the 3" setup for your car. I went with the 2.5" setup but I should be okay until I get my heads ported. With the pacesetter LT headers I paid under $700 for everything including welding and installing.
