408 swap questions
408 swap questions OK... I am preparing to receive my 408 longblock with ET heads.
I am curious as to whether or not I can go ahead and install my Procharger kit with the motor out of the car and then drop the motor into place and finish hooking up the IC piping and whatnot. Would this make it more difficult to drop in and tighten down the motor, or would I be alright doing it this way?
I know it will be much easier to install my Procharger setup before putting the motor in, but if it will make the motor swap more difficult it may not be worth it.
This is for a GTO btw and from the looks of it I will have plenty of room to do this, I am just curious if this is how most install new setups!?
Thanks

It better be tough... I am getting real axious.
I would put the blower on later, not worth chancing it, don't they hang down on the GTO? It'd be the first thing to get destroyed if the motor were to **** sideways or drop.
Your going to make some awsome power with that thing. These ET heads flow like crazy. With the right set-up your going to love it. My TRQ curve is long and flat! I smoke the 315 nittos on motor at a 40 roll like there nothing!
