Looks Great! It’s a BluePrint 383 - I’ve seen some of your other posts. Looks nice and clean.
Lower duration and quite a bit of lift. It’s gotta be a torque monster! What does the dyno sheet say?? That’ll be a fun motor.

Holy schnikes... over 400 lb ft from a high idle to 6000 rpm! I did not expect the 436hp, but you have the cubes and heads. Really, really nice! That will be a roasting beast! Good luck with the install.

Nice set-up I have the same engine install in our vette. What carb are you going to install? I had installed a Holley 770 street avenger . I could not get it to run right . lowered the jets two sizes and added a lighter secondary spring and still did not run well. I replaced the carb with a Holley 600 and it ran a lot better as I drive it' to the shop to get a Holley Sniper efi installed

gmcman52 Eddie Motorsports Aluminum Valve Covers MS108-29P I wanted the vintage look and these fit the bill. They are tall to clear roller rockers.
