Its almost ALIVE!

Well after 4 months of not seeing this baby run, after converting from a 327 small block to a 468 big block. This thing is ready to run!!!!!! All i lack now is the water pump valve covers and a few wires! Ive been waiting for this day for a long time!

Sounds awesome. I've been thinking maybe I'd like a BB eventually. More tq than small blocks without having to work as much. They can be heavy, though, so it would have to have plenty of power to make up for it! Let us know when you get it running!
