Default anything else i would need?

Ok as many of you know im currently putting in a novi 2000 (has been going on for a long time) just got the money to order some more parts that i need so i just want to go over everything, and see if i am missing anything!
Ordering:
-Boost guage
-42# injectors
-255 pump
-fuel pump regulator, and guage
-PMS tuner

I cant think of anything else can you?

Also is there any brand boost guage is should go for? any recomendations?

Nope, sounds like you are set. Some people run a fuel gauge too to monitor their fuel input, but since you have an A/F/R tuner you should be fine. For the boost gauge, I just got a cheap Autometer one($45). It's mechanical and it works okay. Although you may want to step up to their white gauges with the green backing. It's a little bit more $$, though. Also, you'll need a pillar to mount your gauge in. I'd get a dual one, just in case you need another gauge down the road.

When officially, do you expect the car to be running? Also, the boost gauge may take a little time to install. I'd expect about an hour to complete it.
