Rods just came in.. what am I missing for a built motor?
OK lets see here (Just changing rods)
I now have:
H-beam rods
ARP Main studs
ARP Head studs
Rod bearing
Main Bearings
Rod bearings
Need to get:
head gaskets
High volume oil pump
---------------------------------------------
Am I missing anything else? Do I need more gaskets? The oil pan gasket is re-usable right? Any other odds and ends I need to get before I get the motor pulled out? Do I need new rings for the stock pistons? Motor has 30k miles on it.
Thanks, J

Sounds about right to me AND CONGRATS BRO
I'm addressing the 3 main issues myself, Rods, Spitting Plugs, and lifting or leaking Heads.
ARP Head Studs
ARP Main Studs
Custom CP Pistons
FMS High Volume Oil Pump
Manley Forged H-beam Rods (we're using something dif, 1200 HP)
ModMax Plasma Moly Ring set
Performance Main Bearings
Performance Rod Bearings
My Heads are having Inserts put in
The New and Improved Head Gaskets from Ford
Motors being Balanced and Blue Printed
A little more Boost, AND A LOT MORE NITROUS

Rob, I believe the rods your using are the Manley vacume degassed billet I-beam rods with 7/16 bolts. The same ones I have.
