Looking good mate !!!! Love the upgraded engine and wheels !!!

Cant wait to see how the build goes, heres a shot of the sbc in my bay. Theres roughly 3/4 inch clearance between the original firewall and block and 1/2 inch clearance to the radiator support. This is based on using the provided pulleys from Weiand.

sweet! thanks for that mate! That's an awesome looking engine.A strange fact though- FB/EK's have 40mm more room from the rear of the radiator support panel to the firewall than a 57 chev? (the chev does have the radiator in front of the support panel though)
