Katech ported and modified oil pump is the best available IMO. Harland Sharp bolt ons are very nice pieces. Ajustable rockers are a pain ijn the a$$ and you need valve cover spacers or a lot of custom clearancing.

This is my favorite gm pump here. http://www.lingenfelter.com/mm5/merc...egory_Code=C54
It's just like the melling pump but designed by gm. I used the low pressure relief spring in mine. 45psi hot idle and by 2K rpm's it's 60 psi, anything 3K or higher is 80psi. No shortage of oil pressure and I never have sucked the pan dry. I run it hard too......

The stock one is fine, but on a 408 you may end up with a bit less oil pressure. I recomend a stock oil pump from a D.O.D. motor. They have great pressure and more volume than the ported standard style pumps.
As for rockers I'd only recomend Yella Terra's if you don't run the stock one's.
