454 big block 70 1/2 ton
Happy new year everyone. It's been a long time since my last visit and I wish everyone has success this year keeping your Chevy wheels rolling, looking nice, or with a project like ours - inching in the right direction.
The title pretty well explains it! It's finally ready to start piecing together. I thought I'd first post this instead of ordering from the catalogs. My son and I are attempting to put a nice rebuilt 454 into a 70 1/2 ton shortbed. I'm looking for a lot of parts that you folks hopefully can help me find. Since the old motor was a small block, to begin, I need some big block motor mounts and frame mounts. Following are some of the things I need & thanks in advance for the help. Black sunvisors Hood adjustment bumpers Hood to fender bumbers Door opening weatherstrip Window sealing stripset weatherstrip Door glass run channel Hood to cowl seal Rubber bumper door set Fleetside tailgate rubber bumpers water pump (Does anyone know whether a short or long?) Black dash pad Fuel regulator Electric fuel pump Carpet kit (black) Rear bumper brackets Inside firewall insulation - actually insulation material for the entire cab area that can be insulated. black arm rests interior door panels This is just a partial list, but it's a good start. As I sit and read this, there is more... like alternator brackets etc. I'm overwhelmed big time. Thanks again for help, advice, condolences. To contact us directly the e-mail address is matts70chev@hotmail.com |

Over about 10 months last year, I took a stock 70 model stepside and dropped it 4/6, converted to 5 lug and disc brakes, installed a 454, converted to auto transmission with tilt column, installed power steering, power brakes, and a sway bar.
If you have questions, ask, or PM me and I'll try to answer them. I used short water pump and short accesories because I wanted the truck to be stockish. The went to long pumps in 73.
