I have an excel spread sheet that has 99% of the part numbers and even prices from three different online parts sources if it will help any.

Good stuff! Based on a quick search, it looks like one should be able to acquire all the parts for the swap for under 3k. Pretty damn inexpensive for forced induction. A cam swap to non DOD stuff is around, what, $600 for the delete kit and a cam? Very reasonable power surge.

What about a fuel pump or injectors, are they not needed?

[johnbell2]

good point... LSA or LS9 injectors and ZL1 fuel pump?

The lsa blower install covers many options ranging from full on squash dual pump, pd cam and Mongo weaponx IC HX in place of crash bar to a blower only with bap, LSA injector and Mustang IC HX mounted under the crash bar with afm still working.

Can this thread be organized in such a way to keep if from being a run-on? Would it better to have the PN etc in a xls that can be download?

From my experience, the lsa itself is same as swapping an intake and adding idle/tensioner. The cam work is same as any DoD delete. The challenge is figuring out the IC setup and CAI which much is personal preference.
