73 454, pickup engine info please

[veltex]

Anyone out there up on details of 73 454s in pickups? What were the horsepower options, comp ratios, head castings, block castings, etc. any info helpful, starting to look in wrecking yards for BB chevys to start a build up on, and would like to pick a good one, super high performance not neccesary, but very good would be nice, I would like to stay with oval port, thats what I am running now. Just asking about 73 because I spotted one in a camper special, door jamb said early 73, had a 454 badge in grill, didnt see much else, thanks
