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.
