454 thats all I got to say about that - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My dad bought a 79 c-30 with one little bitty rust spot on the bed today for $800. It runs and drives 50,000 on 454 and new rebuild on a TH400. He is gonna put a small block in it and use it for a local truck for his business and also he has no need for a big block. I do! Actually I might get if from him to put in the 67. I think I got cooling probs now! LOL

A 454 in a Sub feels like a K/5 with a 350 -- but with attitude.
Do it man!

Sweet deal! I have a great idea - how about you swap yours in and then after you get it all figured out, come swap mine in. Deal?

425-500's are big blocks too! Trust me I've brought my share of them home. Still got em too!LOL When ever we go to pick up the truck I will have some more details.
