I pose a question to all, looking for some direction on what I should do with my spare 454.
first, some background history on this 454:
this is the engine out of my Parts suburban (73 C10,) which I purchased when I needed a transmission for my 77 C20 suburban. this thing has some front end damage on it, but other then that, I drove it home, with only 1 problem ( hood flew up while I was driving it, and had to latch it better) the previous owner, who was on the verge of tears as he handed it, and the paper work over to me, was titled owner since 1980, had just rebuilt the engine june of 2000, and the transmission september 2000. the transmission is still running fine, and the engine is sitting cozy in the parts truck, out at my friend Johns place. I have plans to strip the interior and windows for my 73 K20 super cheyene, which needs all the goodies to make it a supercheyenne again, since someone ripped them all out to put in some really crappy interior work.
the question posed is: what should I do with this engine, so here's the niffty magic Poll script...
