Looks good. I see you have the vented oil fill and appears to be solid valve covers. Since the 70 block does not have the draft tube hole for ventilation how did you deal with that? Late models have the vent in the valve cover.

That's a great question and I will show you.  I got the 67 intake for free so I felt it didn't hurt anything to drill it

Never seen it done that way before. Looks really good.  I remember back when I was in training to be a wrench twister I replaced my 66 long block with a 68 from the scrap yard and kept my MT valve covers with no holes. Took me a while to fiquire out why it blew oil out of the gaskets and oil fill when I turned it. Broke one of the MTs cutting breather holes.

Intake was drilled and tapped to take vacuum from the lifter valley
