That things is going to be sweet! You just might need to change out your springs, just a thought.

^Maybe throw the firewall a few inches to the back. Again, just maybe.

Main journals appear to be in good shape, just need a good line hone. Appears main cap studs have been drilled for wires, must have seen some serious track time in the past....

I think you are going to have to run a 4 inch cowl hood for that one. Might have to build a new crossmember too and step up to a 4L80E, I don't think a 4L60E would live behind it.
