You can use all of the brackts, mounts.... pretty much everything but the internals.

Re: 402 to a 454 swap
I did the same swap and I used, heads, valve covers, intake manifold, carb, exhaust manifolds and all brackets and pulleys. You can not use the flywheel and balancer. Mine was a 72 402 to a 73 454 swap.

Re: 402 to a 454 swap
that is correct, eerything but the ballancer and flexplate/flywheel.
If your 402 carb is perfectly tuned, then it'll need some messing with for the added 50 cubes, but it's still do-able. |
