new here, pics of my 77 swb

i have posted a couple times with questions but not really introduced myself.
here is a couple pics. i rebuilt the top end of the 496 over the winter as the PO really did a piss poor job. short block looked good tho so he must have had someone else do that. the whole top end looked to be completely ebay sourced from china, cheapo lifters, cheapo rockers, etc. rocker geometry was also way off due to incorrect pushrod length.

i put manley valves, howards springs, trend pushrods, morel lifters, and straub rockers in it.
cam is 233/247 @ .050", .601/.612 lift.
i went with the aed 950 carb which is a 850 body and a 750 base plate, it works perfectly for this motor.

anyways, hi.
