Looking good there Ethan.

Are your valve covers just the factories with the paint striped off them?

-looking nice and clean. When I had headers on my 302, they were attached with allen head bolts- kept them well 'unstuck' for when I had to loosen the pass. side header to drop my starter

Glad you got it running!
That is a nice looking engine. You may want to get something to hold your plug wires up nice and tidy, though.
