I don't believe you'll have any problems.

Re: New to restoration
I used a 454 from a 86 Burb. and mated it to a T350 Transmission. I had to find a dual pattern flywheel to mate to the torque converter. everything else worked just fine.

Re: New to restoration
You mite have to use an electric fuel pump if the engine is not machined for it. They changed to the Gen V engine around this time. Something to consider.

Re: New to restoration
A big block is not difficult at all. There are only slight differences between the frame on your '65 and the frames from '67-'72 and the '73-'87 which all came with big blocks from the factory. There are several of us here that can help you thru any problems you may encounter.
