Carb'ed 5.3L build

I want to share my 5.3L build. I started with a 60K miles 5.3L, it had the intake but no accessories other than the water pump. It will be going in a '50 chevy truck and I want an old school look, for that reason I chose to do an efi to carb swap. It will also be backed by an NP833 o/d 4-speed. Here is a complete parts list to date:

MSD 6010
Edelbrock Victor Jr. LS1
Comp XR265 212/218, .522/.529 on 114 cam
LS6 valvesprings
TSP 7.400 pushrods
Hooker LS1 ceramic coated headers
Barry Grant Speed Demon 650vs
PML Covers LS1 finned valve covers
f-body oil pan, pickup
f-body dipstick
f-body crank pully
f-body alternator, ps pump and brackets
universal LSx engine mounts (weld-in)
LS2 pilot bearing
4.8L/6.0L flywheel
80's truck 12" clutch kit
new crank bolt
new flywheel bolts
speedway motors sending unit adapters (metric to npt)

That's all I can think of and there are a few more parts to get. I can't wait to give ya'll the update on how this puppy runs. Should be a fun combo in this truck.
