Nice looking engine, I like the green. I will say this...I didn't think that setup would physically fit into the engine compartment without hammering a cavity into the firewall for the back carburetor. Have you confirmed it will fit or have you anticipated massaging the sheetmetal.
I had this same setup on a 235 in a car (it fits in a car). I didn't use the Rochesters. I used three matched Strombergs that are quite a bit smaller (venturi) than the Rochesters. I can't imagine how progressive linkage would work on this setup...mine were all tied together and worked beautifully. Keep us posted on your progress.

i was told a progressive system would be better on tuning and mpg. is this not true?? if all i have to do is tie them up together that will make my life way simple.
as far as the clearance i've seen it done beofore. i most likely have to remove the drivers fender support rod though.
another question i thought about, i was originally planning on mounting my fuel block to the front drivers side of the valve cover, which would make running the lines much simpler and clean up my firewall, but someone mentioned if i have the block so close to the exhaust i might get vapor lock from the fuel heating up. what you guys think?
