Re: 350 to 454 swap...is it worth it?
As long as it doesn't need rings, etc., it should be fine. Post the casting numbers of the heads, that'll help.
As mentioned earlier, swap cams and you'll be happier. Big ol' lumpy cams are fun to listen to but can be a pain to drive. Stick with something in the 230-236 range and you'll be fine.
You generally can't buy a good longblock for much less than that and if everything is in good shape and it doesn't need to be honed, etc., it's worth a good bit more than $600. Most 4-bolt blocks sell for $350 - $400 bare...
