ALSO.. just FYI... if you get better pistons (that aren't in the hole .50-.100) and decent heads you can skip the 408.... and get it balanced for the new stuff... a 360 crank is damn strong.. DVWs son made stupid power with his for years and it held up fine... would save more money... Which you...
**** my life.. you got that for $50?! I would pay 500..... in my area i can buy a complete running 440 for less than a junk 360..
The factory roller lifters aren't bad and save a TON of money if you are staying roller cam.. that's what i used i mine.
See post #13. Scott has sold and set up alignment equipment for decades and was a front end/ alignment tech at a dealer before that. The post is what he recommends.

This is you top end oiling hole right above the headbolt, the hold goes down to the cam journal.. Take a flashlight and make sure you can see light all the way through.. guys miss the holes on that bearing A LOT.... the second circle should have the same hold on the other side...
Yes.. will oil through the shaft, i have the 318 version of that block in my car with trickflows and harland sharp shaft rockers...
BTW.. don't be afraid of oil through pushrod.. it works great especially for a normal driver car...
so just to be clear this would oil through the rocker shafts correct? this is the assumption i have been operating under from the start. not that it makes a huge difference yet because i havent started getting everything yet but it will make a difference soon.
That block is a 85-93 LA ROLLER.... it's pretty much as good as it gets... can run a roller cam pretty inexpensively in it and it has the top end oiling holes like a normal LA
and because it is the LA style wouldnt that mean that it oils through the rocker shaft and not the pushrods? i thought the la oiled through rocker shaft and magnum oiled through pushrods
...and the modern alignment specs will continue to be repeated over and over again for the next 20 years - or at least until all the angry old curmudgeons holding onto their precious, factory bias-ply settings eventually join the same resting place where their alignment specs went to die 40...
