Minor update:

Got the heads back from the machine shop and painted them and the '67 intake that I had so I can run a Holley square bore carb (for now) without using an adapter.

M/T valvecovers were new, never bolted on pieces that I found at a garage sale down the street for $10.00!! Will look period correct for the car...

Engine is a conglomeration of really good pieces that I put together from multiple motors. Block and rotating assembly is '75 440 that had virtually NO wear on any of the rotating assembly or bores. '69 906 heads with 40 thou whack top that off with the aforementioned '67 intake and 440 source sluminum pump/housing/waterneck.
