454 Engine swap help needed
OK can someone give me the low down on swapping out my SB 305 with a 454 BB? I have a 69 C/20 TH350 with a 305 (was told it was a 350. WRONG!). I know someone that has a rebuilt 454, which includes oil pump, water pump, Edelbrock intake (less carb). I don't know all the details on the rebuild, but I will find out.
What are the pro's and con's about swapping out the SB for BB? I have seen some info on the motor mounts, but I don't fully understand the issues. I thought the thing about Chevy was it was easy to swap out these motors. I don't want to have problems with hitting the firewall; transmission mount problems; access issues, etc.
