Theres really no reason to get a custom cam unless you want to spend an extra $50 to feel special. You should be able to find every cam imaginable in aftermarket shelf cams for lsx.

I would use multi-layer steel gaskets for both the heads and headers. Ive tried both (felpro) and had much better results with MLS, plus they can be re-used. Head gaskets, waterpump gaskets (2), front cover gasket, front crank seal, and oil pump o ring. Thats everything you need if you want to piece it together

No. ARP head bolts is all you need from them. Get a factory crank bolt, some SS bolts from home depot for the headers, and re-use everything else.

LS2 timing chain is all you need, and it will fit your stock ls1 timing set. At $40 its much cheaper than the comp cams set.

Pretty sure this was mentioned in his other thread.
