Allright. I'm putting my engine together relatively soon (1.5 weeks), and am now just trying to make sure that I have everything I should have and need.
So far:
I've replaced all the timing components of my engine, as well as a total rebuild.
Here's whats on my list:
Akimoto vaccuum lines (3/16" walls so they won't collapse).
Plugs (Denso Iridium 2 stages colder, gapped at .028")
Clutch (SPEC stage 3)
Piping for Intercooler (Anyone have suggestions for what I'd need for my KA-T... or a guesstimate? I just don't wanna have 50 extra feet of piping laying around)
Slim battery (Hawker?)
New water pump and radiator hoses.

I know that I'm missing a lot of stuff. So, if people know what I'd need, or have some suggestions for what else I should get, just let me know!
Thanks!
