Default Couple quick ?'s

First off...
I need to go get another motor in order to swap stuff over to my new iron 5.7 such as intake manifold, harness, sensors an whatnot anyways...

1. How many sensors do i need to look for on the harness when i pick up this other motor from the junkyard.
2. Anyone use the ls4 high flow oil pump? i know TSP had ls6 ported for 120 but they are back up to like 150-160 now...
3. Whats a good set of forged pistons that won't kill the bank... i was thinking of TSP Mahle pistons but i want to know what you guys think.

Thanks in advance!!

What CR are you looking at? What heads? Those questions need to be answered before choosing pistons...

David has had great success with his TSP224XE, and you might try the patriot 226 that luke is running.
