Use the plug for the sensor. It's on the drivers side front of the block

So which setup would would the truck experts like more, higher compression 5.4 with B heads with Todd Warren cams or built 2v LB and Lightning swap? Both would be about the same Hp and Both are about the same cost after everything.

I got screwed over by a speed shop on the 4v I was building for the truck last year. At that point I wasn't even doing cams but a fresh solid 4v. Now Todd has my brain wanting more.

For an overland vehicle wouldnt a low hanging intercooler be a problem?

B heads aren't that great and would require a complete custom manifold. NA will never make the power or torque of a proper L setup. I would keep it simple. A solid rotating assembly with forged pistons. Cams and a L blower with around 12-14 lbs will make enough power and torque to kill a 4r70
