Okay, I was wondering what would be the best setup for my car to handle highway running. I wanted to build my head to withstand constant downshifting and high revs on the interstate. What would be the best combo for this?

Here's what I thought:
Oil & fuel pump, Head gasket and head studs, new cams, valve-springs (to prevent floating valves), naturally a stronger clutch, a lightened flywheel, and eventually some mild porting.

Anyone with any suggestions? Would this be a proper combo or am I full of poo? Any help, suggestions, insults or smart remarks greatly welcome fellas, :thumb:
