I'd say blow off the NGK spark plugs and get Motorcraft plugs, and personally i wouldn't dump the 44s run the pipes all the way back...had them on my 92 for about 5 mins dumped andwanted to kill myself,it sounds much better all the way back

What is this list for.... im guessing your doing a top end kit.

You didnt really give us that much info.
Fuel pump......what size ?
Header gasket..... what kind, did you forget about head gasket , and intake gasket ?
You mention 75 mm throttle body, do you plan on getting the dame size EGR spacer ?
What about push rods and new springs for the heads ?

Im not possitive on this but i think the gt40 intake has either a 65mm or 70 mm opening so if you want to use a 75 mm throttle body, you should port match, that way theres no lip that the air will hit.

But if you do all that ,upgrading the size of the mass air meter should be done to. The size you pick should be the same size or bigger then the throttle body... never smaller. ( and never buy C&L maff meters , they suck )
