Default Beater gets a new engine, almost...

With the L-88 D.O.A. I decided to look around my junk to see what I had in feebies, Business is slow and paying for my wife to go to law school I decided to just put something togeather with stuff I had and keep the cost down, This is what the beater gets, 496 ci. zero deck flat top Ross pistons close chamber heads, very small solid roller cam, some NOS blue rockers compliments of Isky, and other junk I could dig up, I'm waiting on some old carbs now off ebay, Im going to build some custom ones using 750 cfm main bodies, but keep it time period corect. The acessories came off the L-88 so no cost there, even has the packard wires on it. This is what I have so far, need the carbs...
