Okay, educate me...

You will want to have to get a shift kit also to allow quicker and firmer shifts so you dont lose as much power through the tranny. Brakes are often over looked when people start to mod. I always say "Its more important to stop fast than to go fast." With out know what DR has on their engine its hard to say what else you might need. You could post a breakdown of the engine he is selling and see if anyone else see's something you might want to add.

Here is what DR is offering.. so it may be from his company or something similar:

350 cubic inches - Ported cylinder heads - High flow stainless valves - Performance valve springs - Titanium spring retainers - Chrome moly pushrods - 1.6 intake and 1.5 exhaust - roller rocker arms - DRM hydraulic roller camshaft - High performance timing set - 52mm throttle body - K&N air filter - Modified air filter lid - High volume fuel pump - Adjustable fuel pressure regulator - Stainless exhaust manifolds - Custom computer calibration...

I think I will begin the modifications in this order brakes, suspension, rear end gears, tranny, then the engine...

The LT4 has a higher lift and duration cam than does the LT1. It also has 1.7:1 rocker raito as apposed to 1.6:1m thus making better use of the increased lift from the new cam.

All true, except its actually 1.6 roller ratio on the LT4 and 1.5 ratio on the LT1
