Talking 5.7 swap underway.

well my budy talked me into doing the swap now and worry anout stroking it later. got the old one out now sitting on the floor and man what a bitch i guess couse its the first time with these trucks it just seemed to take a long time to pull. but its out and i'm gonna get the other one together hope fully tonight. i had questions last night but i went to sleep and forgot them lol. does and one know how much torque it should take to turn the rotating assembly with the heads off? and has anyone else taken off the oil pan and found a bunch of like dirt crap in the bottom of it? more questions to come.


*edit* are the motor mount bolts on these things suppose to be so impossible to remove. we broke one and the others came out but very hard.

Never Had A Motor Mount Bolt Breake But Had Some Tight.
With Heads Off It Should Turn With Very Little Force.(should Not Be Tight In No Way Shape R Form)
