I'd dump an LS just on GP. Hate 'em. DKY except they're period incorrect. To me it's like putting an SBC in a vintage Jaguar.
Also computers hate me.
I had a 454 in a '67 K/10 Suburban. It was fun at 80, the whole doghouse shook like a GoGo Dancer with white boots. It had a 735 CFM Carter AFB. Intake and exhaust were stock cast iron. Truck passed anything on the road, but a hi test gas pump.
