Big Block Swap

Anyone on here done a Big block swap.
I'm getting ready to start mine and just seeing if there is any friendly advice out there. I'm going to be running a carbed 460, c6, 205 to a divorced 205.

Just wondering but why would you moving to a big block from a mod motor?

Also if you are willing to do a big block swap why go all out a drop in a 3v v10 out of a super duty wreck.
