What is the ideal ICL for a 408? http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tec.../photo_11.html
If I follow this method and looking at 2.165" intake valve diameter on a 408 I am coming up with around 107° for the intake lobe center-line angle. Does that sound about right?
Thanks!!

Totally depends on the intake manifold you're using and the desired rpm band you want. The runner length on an LS3 intake differs from a FAST intake which differs from a single plane intake.

Its a FAST 78mm but I could always change it if that intake intake is going to significantly hurt performance. The heads I am looking at are the PRC Stage 2.5 L92/LS3 Hollow Intake Stem. I'm trying to select a cam with little overlap so it sounds relatively stock but get me good 1/4 mile times.
