Beautiful job and looks like the correct "Cadillac Blue" too. Seeing this reminds me of when I rebuilt the engine in my 65 Cadillac Sedan De Ville. My first rebuild. When I started the first and it RAN... Great memories.
Looks great- I've done a few of these. If you find your engine has some occasional misfires, ditch the pertronix. I went thru 2 of them and one electronic distributor before i went back to points. sorry to say.
I've only had an issue once or twice and that's with in 20 years. I just always have a spare on hand. Did you hook it up correctly with no resistor wire?
What studebaker rockers fit? I just bent a push rod in my '58 365 that I rebuilt about 10 years ago. I wouldn't mind some ability to adjust without shimming or machining the pedestals.

I strive to only use the correct blue
Very cool 🤙 I have a couple 390's sitting in the corner. And I have about a dozen cadillac's

I think it might need a different flywheel. At least mine had about 30 bolts to mate with the transmission.
I have the matching transmission for it
Where are you located?
I need somebody to rebuild mine. Anybody here in California.
