Also, the weaknesses of the V8 are well known, and the ways of dealing
with those weaknesses are also well know. For example, the ignition
timing sender and the engine speed sensor -- identical except for the
color of the wire/connector. One (ignition timing sensor) is NLA; the
other can be used in its place.
