Nah, just me, I guess... 
Stock TPI - no mid-12's there.
Valve springs - to match cam.
350 ECM - no mid-12's there. Spend some money on PROM burning equipment.
Eagle crankshaft - any particular reason for that?
Converter - needs to match the cam from the get-go, or nothing but disappointment is in your future.
Exhaust - need that before the rest of the combo has a chance.
Cam - call the manufacturers' help lines. Tell them exactly what you've got or will have in the final configuration. They will know better than anyone else what will work.

i called comp cams. they gave me specs for an extreme energy roller. they are 218/224 .495/.503 112.
i am just putting the tpi on it until after our emissions here gets killed off in dec. then i am going to throw on a holley steath ram kit. i am also going to invest in a 2400 stall at a later date too.
im not building the motor to put in and it run mid 12s. i want it to beable to do that after headers (waiting for emiisons to die) the rest of the exhaust is already done.
i picked the eagle crank because it is cheap, i dont have a crank, and i heard they are good as long as your not shooting it with nitrous.
so i want the thing to run mid 12s after....

Hey, nothing against Dart heads, but why are you choosing Iron Eagles? They are a decent head, but for alittle more money you could have aluminum heads. I would also look for a larger runner size, like a 190-200. I would probably get a larger cam too, that one is little....and you might as well if you wanna run low or mid 12's.
i picked the dart iron eagles just because i heard they were good heads and cheap. what aluminium heads can i get for near that price?
the runners and cam were based on putting the tpi on it for now but its turning out to be one of those things where its going to take a while to get all the parts.
what would you recommend as far as heads and cam to go with that intake(stealth ram)?

Well Trick Flows are like $1100 and Iron eagles are like $1000, so there is just one of many factors. As for a cam, it depends on how long you are gonna run stock TPI on it. If it will be awhile than you can get different runners and a larger TB, and port the base and plenum. If you choose to do that then I would say get the cam you will use with the Stealthram, if you don't wanna put any money in that setup, run a modest cam like the one you picked, and change it when you put the stealth on. You pick.
i might not even put the tpi on it. what cam do you recommend for the stealth ram? this is a daily driven car so nothing too radical.

I don't really know what your set up is....soooo, i can't say for sure. I would run Pro-magnum 1.6 roller rockers, and probably something of moderate duration but w/ decent lift. I dont know the compression, head flow, etc, etc....but I am always a fan of custom cams, then you can have someone match everything perfectly. I would get the heads, have them flow benched......get everything but the cam and springs figured out and go from there.
If you don't want to get a custom, post some more specs.

ok so i have a better idea of where i might head. i looked up trick flow top end kits i guess is what you would call it and i came up with this....

I think you should try to get the Trick Flows w/ the 64cc chambers, that would help alot. I think that cam may be alittle large, maybe one alittle smaller. Or get flat tops w/ 2 valve reliefs, that will boost compression alittle. I will have to think alittle on a cam, but if you are running 1.5 rockers, why not try the CC306 cam, or the CC305.....both are decent size, and if you wanna upgrade you can jump to 1.6 RR's. Let me think about some other choices, then I will get back to you.
sent you a pm. you chimed in while i was editing.
