    Aftermarket ignition ...do you really need one?

    Maybe off topic but if there is any chance of over-revving then a aftermarket ignition is a must IMO.

    Supporting the engine?

    I've used a small chain across the torsion bars to hold up the front of the transmission. Might be able to do the same for the back of the engine. Come to think of it I've used it for the engine too.

    Alignment with ductile-iron rockers?

    I would suggest shims against the hold-downs to keep the rockers from eating into the aluminum.

    Pulley question

    If you have all the pulleys, brackets, accessories, and timing cover from your 318, I would do that. Just need two piece balancer from 5.9 Magnum. Good luck!
