Also, interesting what you did with the vocals. Sounds like a phaser maybe? Though I am kind of disappointed at the total lack of Hammond in this one. When things get full on the Hammond just kind of disappears. Especially evident at around 4 min. The song wants to go bigger but can't. You already hit the wall before and the entire thing sounds like it kind of collapses at a few points.
Despite the bit at ~4 min. I think it is a pretty good mix. Certainly gets loud and has a "big sound".
I took the approach of mixing it as if it were a hired gig and the rough mix that's posted was what was given to me, and I heard a guitar song. I agree with you on the B3 could have come up a little bit on its riffs during the verse, but I also chose to showcase it during the bridge/breakdown. The vocals just have a leslie mixed in to taste
