What a nice, personable approach to explain what you are doing during the swap, including all the lumps and warts. Anyone that has ever done engine swaps, would understand how the simplest things can go wrong. The part I hate the most, is when I have welded something up perfectly, and then found I was 180 degrees out. It never looks as good the second time.

Looking good, maybe consider disc brakes for the front end, with the extra Go under the bonnet, it is the Idiots you have to worry about, some stop early etc, you need to be able to stop too! Have some V8 burble when you put an exhaust on, not loud but not too quiet either.
