Default big block swap

I am in the process of building a 502 for installation in a 68 that currently has a small block. The car has power brakes and the new engine has victor 24 heads on it. My question is, will I be able to get the valve covers on and off with the power brake booster setting where it is? Any help appreciated. Thanks. Stan.

You will not have any issues as long as you swap out the small block frame mounts to BB frame mounts. It will offset the engine to the right giving more clearance for things like exhaust and power brake booster.
