well, the highlights are basically what he said.
the cam is a 97 LT1 unit, .450 in/.460 out. the intake is the holley street dominator tbi, i picked it because it is a dual plain with rather large runners, so it shoudl support some very good torque and still have a better top ende than the edelbrock tbi which has a similar runner shape but a lower runner volume.
i also switched from the 1.6 roller tips to 1.5 full roller rockers, the 1.6's would have made the cam too big and cause vacuum issues.
i have also put the car on an even bigger diet, it shoudl race at under 3200lbs, maybe closer to 3100lbs.
once it is at the track or whenever i can talk to jprevost i am gonna have a custom prom burned to get the most out of it. i figure on the stock chip i can get it to go mid 13's and once the prom is tuned in it WILL go 12's n/a.

We're going to the TGI Friday's just down the road like 5 miles. The directions are going to be from somebody else. I didn't get everyone to e-mail me but I do have plenty of cell phone numbers just incase somebody gets lost. There are some people meeting up at a local wawa. I have a few friends meeting up with me at My place and then we're going to Ewing for NJSpeeders crew, then going to Atco bright and early in the morning.
I don't think anybody will have a hard time finding all of us. We're a big bunch of thirdgens with our SN's on our hatch glass!
