I posted a while back looking for suggestions and ended up pulling the trigger. Just trying to get some second opinions to make sure I have everything needed to do this swap myself and not forgetting anything. This is all going in a 2014 regular cab Express with the 6 speed.

So far I have “in hand”

- Demon Motorsports “Demon” cam kit. Came with Mopar Non mds “hellcat” lifters, Pushrods, Valve springs, Phase limiter, Head bolts, Head gaskets, Cometic exhaust gaskets, Front cover gasket, Water pump gasket, Front seal, Mds plugs, Cam bolt, and Crank bolt.

-ARH Long tubes with 1-3/4 primaries, Y-pipe, and no cats

-AEM wide band gauge kit with **** already welded into the Y-Pipe.

-Vararam Air Grabber intake.

-Circle D HP series converter with 3000 stall.

- Denso 3381 spark plugs (planing to go with 100-125 shot in the near future)

- Dorman 621-410 electric fan

Tools I have so far.

-All necessary basic hand tools.

-3 sizes of torque wrenches for inch lbs and ft lbs.

-3 jaw pullers to get the harmonic balancer off

- Comp cams valve spring compressor tool.

- Assembly Lube

besides a transmission jack and fluids (which I need to figure out how much to get) is there anything else parts or tools I am missing? I would hate to get in the middle of doing this to realize I forgot something. Thanks in advance!
