Bare Bones Budget 400 Build

We'll see. I still gotta locate a bellhousing. That might hang me up a minute. I have a good friend basically donating a transmission and drive shaft, and Brewer's has the 400 cast crank flywheel they modify for external balance. Once I get "all that" then I can see about fitment.
Those big block bellhousings go for around $450 around here..
