1973 with big block

I recently purchased a 1973 c10 with a small block. The engine is giving me some trouble, and must be replaced. I have a big block that I am considering using, but wondering what issues I may run into. I have all brackets for the big block from an earlier car.

Thanks

Re: 1973 with big block

I will be doing the same to my 75 SWB
Click the link in my signature to follow along.
My 496 & T400 should be ready, hopefully, on 7-15-12.
Then we start R&R'ing it all

I also have my Factory original 454 C/20 to compare with if I run into anything
