New 408 build finally started

Glad to see this as I'll be starting a 408 build before long. I have fair mechanical background, but this will be my first engine build. The part about "setting up thrust" is something I will have to research.
I have the book by Mopar Performance Parts on Magnum Engines, and an old one by Taylor/Hofer on rebuilding. Any others to recommend, or useful threads?
Thanks for posting your build up.
