How I did it.. i just disconnected fuel relay/fuse, and ignition wires.. cranked over..

408's been running strong for over a year now(with a 6 month break for drivetrain suckage) and no problems. this is a daily driver.

put the motor in, hook everything up, start it... it will have oil pressure within fractions of a second. done it and seen it done on many fresh motors.
