408 stroker header size

So chain the driver's side of the engine down.
Schumacher creative services torque strap is another idea.
If your engine moves enough to dent the header tube,
(without the chain or torque strap)
something’s wrong.

Just an FYI, I live in the Fraser Valley and have had a mailbox in Blaine WA for years. There is no duty on car parts, the mailbox fees are like 2.75 per item and the tax at the border is 12% for BC. I find for trips under about $150 they just waive me through. Way less hassle and usually cheaper even at 30% exchange than buying local, sadly.

Last I heard for a day trip to the U.S.A. you are allowed a value of $200 to bring back before the tax grab. It does depend on what your bringing back (alcohol)
However I thought I heard a rumor that it had went up to $300

Ive been across border for half an hour and brought back $4000 dollars in parts with no duty.

It is at the discretion of the customs officer.
I just quoting the actual fact of the law.
Some provinces may have different laws regarding this.

Solid mount the motor.
Seriously, the motor will torque to the pass side, lifter the drivers side.
Hence what I said.....
Use a combo of thick (truck) and thin (car) isolator pads. Loosen up the stearing box and motor mounts and move everything around until you get a good fit.
I have Dougs on my 68 Fastback and they fit great!
You can get the isolators at local parts store.
How do you know? Maybe he wants to drive backwards. LOL
Ok so I guess I'll just leave it then it' only the number 1 tube that has any clearance problem but 1 16th should be enough I hope. Had to buy a mini starter wasn' too bad with that one the old one was impossible.

so hard to trace all the threads back to find the info.
What pan is this and do you have the part number? And pick up Part number?
I believe you have a 408 so I imagine it’s 360 based? LA or magnum? I think the magnum has slightly different pick up which I need.
I like how tucked up the pan is in yours. I have a Moroso (mopar performance version in a crate 402) on it right now and man that sucker hangs down!
could you show the notch you cut out!
Much appreciated if you can answer a few questions and maybe show the picture of a notch
thanks!

If the Milodon pan you all are talking about is their 8 qt, then be careful which headers you use. TTI and Dougs will fit. There are a couple of others I'm not sure about. But the kicked out oil pan sump will interfere with the headers on the passenger side. The notch required to clear the front passenger side of the sump corner is the lip of the k-frame. But I don't have a pic handy. The Milodon 8 qt. is also a little bit shallower than the Moroso 8 qt., which also has a drain plug in the bottom of the pan (not good) while the Milodon is in the back side.
Milodon 30936 pan, yes LA based using 89 roller block. I'll have to look into part number for pickup.

I made a mistake, I have the Moroso, with the plug on the bottom, and I want it off the car.
‘’speaking about pans again, anyone have any thoughts on the Kevko? Been looking at that too
