Opinions on what 6.0L LQ9 into LSx UPGRADES to do??

Hi all;

as you can see from my other thread in "Engines" I was an idiot and got my cam dirty so now it needs to be torn down....so since it is apart anyways I am looking for ideas on what to put into it to get it up and going again with maybe a little more ooomph!

Been reading threads and doing lots of searches this weekend and this is my wish list so far:

- GM Hot Cam package (springs, rockers, rods) 12480033
- L92 heads
- DT headers
- LS2 or 3 (whichever works) used Intake manifold (can I use my LQ9 fuel rails on it or do I need new ones?? What about my old throttle body?)
- ECM tune

So, does anyone have any other ideas of combos to use or threads they know of where others have done this?

Is there another site where I can locate parts?

Really I'm looking for more knowledge than I have on this as I'm dropping of my block tomorrow to be torn down and cleaned.

Thanks!!
