Welcome from Washington State.

welcome from the fire ravaged okanagan, I ain't no master mechanic, But I'll throw my 2 bits in were I can to help you out, that 454 for that kind of money is a good start, even if you don't deside to put it in you can always trade it for a sweet small block, good luck with your truck
