Hi all,
New here. I am currently in the process of swapping out my 350 to a 454 in my 1976 K5 blazer.
I know I want to go with the off road design competition motor mounts, but am curious should I go the extra mile and put a 2in lift on and install off-road designs high clearance cross member as well to help stiffen things up? Thoughts on living stock cross member or upgrading?
Also curious what oil pan and clutch you may recommend for this swap as well. Stock capacity vs. aftermarket higher capacity?
Thank you in advance for any recommendations and feedback.
