427 to 454 Engine Swap

Post by Jon »

Our 1972 35’ SF has the original 4 bolt main 427 blocks. These engines are worth $$ around here and I’m interested in swapping for 454’s. Does anyone have experience for such a swap? I know lots have been done. I’m particularly interested in what components can be reused, heads, manifolds, carb, distributors, struts, shafts. Thanks for any help.
