new 408
new 408 I'm working on a 408 build for my tired 4.8
tsp iron sb, -10cc diamonds
prc 2.5 cnc'd 5.3's.
using the stock 4.8 manifold, throttle body and maf for induction...
(anyway I can improve on this? w/o changing all the front drive's)
what are the torque specs on the oil pan? (as I understand, its a stressed component...)
and will all the sensors hook up in stock location, should I replace any of them? is there any special process for removing knock sensors?
want to make this is as drop in as I can... But never removed such a new engine out of a truck. sorry for all the questions!! and thanks!

THANK YOU!!!'
Well.. I guess I should look at a fast92/92 setup or a vic jr... who makes the upper sheetmetal intake plenums I see on so many vic jr's? and where can I get one?
really, I'll looking for a good dd I can just swap cams out for the track... looking at the two peice front covers now.... havent buttoned anything up yet.. taking my time,
I get what your saying on the sensors.. I'll order them tomorrow. Thanks!
any idea what sort of power I'll make with a stock truck intake?

and thank you!! I will post pics and numbers once I drop it in... got to find out how to align my front and rear covers now... w/o special tools.. along with the oil pan. cant afford gm's magic gold right now.
