ending '77 C-20 project...new 454/700R4 for sale...more parts
Well, I broke down and bought a Suburban to tow/haul my stuff around, so I'm ending my '77 C20 project build. I don't need this 454 or 700R4 anymore (have plenty--see sig), so I'm going to put it up for sale here. I will let you pay out the 454 over a couple of months if needed.
Here goes: Just rebuilt (by E.T. Performance in Garland, TX) Short block: '73 2-bolt 454 bored .030 over. Everything balanced. Rods resized. Crank turned. New factory cast pistons (8.5-1). Clevite bearings. Mellings HV oil pump. Cloyes Tru-Roller chain and gears. New oil pan. Degreed Comp Cams 262H-11 hydraulic cam 218/226 dur and lift of .505/.515...nothing radical...damn good street cam. Comp hydraulic lifters. Heads: '73 big oval port 781's rebuilt with new valves (stock size) Comp springs, retainers, locks, Comp steel Magnum roller rockers, Comp rocker studs and Comp 7/16" pushrods. Intake is a Performer Plus aluminum intake. New waterpump. Chrome timing cover. Accel Hei. Everything is new. Engine was broken in on dyno (379hp/460lbft), and I have about 100 miles on it getting the truck and transmission dialed in. It runs very strong and has just a slight "lope" to it at idle...enough to let the other guys know "it ain't stock" . Engine is currently in the truck, so you can hear it run if you like. The carb is available separately, as well as the ceramic coated headers. No accessories like alt, ac, or brackets included...just the engine. $1700 firm, or if needed $1000 down and the rest negotiated. Here's a pic before it was installed: See below for info on the 700R4 trans.

700R4 info
The 700R4 I have for sale is a fresh, rebuilt unit, with high performance clutches, bands, and Corvette servo. It took me a while to get everything modified to put it behind the 454 in the '77, but using the Bowtie Overdrive pieces, and having a friend here local who's a trans expert, we got it in and shifting very well.
It has the Bowtie overdrives lock up wiring installed in it, as well as the BTO "carb" spring for the TV valve. This trans has about 100 miles on it. It shifts very firmly into second, and crisply into 3rd and 4th. $450 plus shipping .... ti's heavy. 2200 stall lock up convertor, flexplate, and BTO tv-made-easy kit for Edelbrock carb all available separately.

Do you happen to know what year the tranny is? Would it work on an 87 w/a 350?
