It's a pretty decent little book. It doesn't go all crazy over high performance aftermarket parts, even though it does cover things such a setting up rocker arms and such. It just gives a lot of good tips for engine assembly of LS Type motors. I would say it's definitely a good addition to any motor heads library.

The pushrods are ordered. Obviously, I'll have to remove the valve covers again to install them and the rockers. The trunion upgrade kit is already installed and ready to go. Still waiting on the coolant crossover lines and injector clips. It's almost time to move the engine over, and move the truck into the garage
What is the torque on this style of intake bolt? My book shows a different bolt and torque spec that mashes the rubber isolators out.

I doubt he's using 44 ft/lbs then backing that up with 89 ft/lbs haha.
I don't have my book infront of me, but I know it's not much. I normally can do them by feel and visual. I'm sure it's a similiar torque as the valve covers. Those back oil pan bolts are sketchy too. They always feel like they are going to strip.
