Re: 454 700r4 combo...Anything I need to know??

Sounds like a blast to drive. I would be pretty conservative on cam selection so as to keep it driveable and maximize low end power. I'd keep duration under 220 especially if this is a stock compression motor. Run a dual plane intake with a Q-jet. If you have an aversion to quadrajets a Holley 3310 750 vac. secondarys or 750 Eddy would also work well. I would put serious thought to replacing the original motor mounts with the 72 and later desighn. They hold the motor much more securely. I think there is a write up on here detailing the swap. You may want to replace your driveline and upgrade your carrier bearing to the beefier desighn if you have not done so already.
