Katech 416 NA short block, fully forged, 11.5:1 compression
LT4 injectors, in tank and high pressure pumps, and fuel lines
ATI balancer
BTR 660 dual springs/seals
Katech oil pump
NW 103 T/B
JLT 5 inch cold air intake
Katech LT1 track day camshaft
I have a year old set of Johnson 2110r lifters that seem ok, but with the metal that went through the system I am thinking those should be replaced like I'm doing with the oil cooler.

I already have an MSD unported manifold and 1 7/8 kooks headers and exclusively run E85. I plan on buying a new OEM clutch because I don't think I'll exceed it's capabilities

I expect to make over 600whp, considering I was at 550whp with the stock bottom end. Thoughts? Suggestions?
If I were you. I'd bump up compression abit.
A combination of a thin gasket and milling the heads a little will get you to 12.5:1 compression. Will be fine on pump gas, and respond well to E85.
