sedges are the most helpful people ive ever delt with, got all the head parts for mine overnighted and gave me a better trade than i could get going through my workshop accounts. Get to know the guys and you'll never look back!! What sort of head work are you looking at? I just got mine done for the charger, theres a lot more options out there than i had imagined Rhys

dry sump it, if your going to keep it for a while, baffle the sump aswell, the factory ones can surge. Rhys

If a n1 is too pricey, go with a second hand (or new) gen rb30et pump. I swapped my n/a pump for a et pump + mobil 1 oil, And have never had an issue. Check clearances if the pump is second hand thou.
