Coool Burb! 502 and a 5 speed will be a hoot. Lots of guys with trucks on here running a Tremec and BB. You might want to post this question in the pu column or drivetrain.

'87-'95 TBI big block accessory brackets should work. Just need to find correct set up for your application. Prolly have to run reverse water pump of the era as well.
