The only way I am going to do it is if I decide I want a lumpy cam. I don't want the big block just to have one. If I go this way I won't be running a/c and will shave my fire wall. I just don't know what to do. I will try to get the casting numbers tomorrow. Where are they?

The truck is going to be bone stock inside and out only lowered 5/7 and sitting on 20's. I think a mean sounding motor in a stock looking truck would be pretty cool. I wonder how much lower the front of the truck would sit with the 454 in it vs the 350.

By the way. This is not going to be a daily driver. This is going to be a weekend cruiser just for enjoyment. In no way a primary mode of transportation no matter what I decide.
