Yes, either cam will work with the stock computer, but for a modified engine to work the best you need to reprogram the chip. I gained 15 horsepower and 12 torque, as well as over 5 miles per gallon, by tuning and reprogramming the chip on my car. Other cars I have tuned have turned in similar results. Trust me, it is worth it, and my prices are very cheap compared to what else is out there.

Use intake the manifold bolts. Just take one out in front on one side and one from the rear on the other side. Put a washer on the bolt and put it through the chain link.

When pulling the engine, would it be easier to just pull the entire engine/tranny together? Just to avoid having to disconnect the engine from the trans?

depends on who's doing the pulling.. he is better off removing only the engine and keeping the trans in, be prepared to have all the tools to unbolt the trans.
