I have a 92 1500 manuel trans. 4x4 wit a 350. It is lifted and i do not have alot of power,i want to swap to a 454 and i want to go to an automatic trans. I was thinking of a 454 with a edelbrock carb and intake steup with a turbo 350 or 400 tranny i want to know if a 454 will bolt right up to the mounts? And i dont care about emissions.will the exhaust manifolds bolt up to the 454 and on the tranny what kind of wiring or vaccuum lines do i have to run if any? Will a 350 or 400 tranny bolt up to all the 4x4 parts and do i have to change my radiatorand fan? Or anything you can think of?
Thanks for the help

Your local bone yard has interchange books with a lot of that information in them.

What trans do you have? (t5?) It might be hard to put in a 700r4 in the place of a manual. At the very least you will probably need a donor wiring harness, ECM(what little it was in 92), and maybe even have to switch over the transfir case. I am not sure though. Have you tried Google? I'd be willing to bet others have completed this swap in the past.

ok i have been doing some research and it doesnt look like i can change the tranny but do you guys know if i took an tranny transfer case and driveshaft out of a k2500 would that work and what year did the trannys have the vaccumm lines and the kickdown cable so i wouldnt need a computer?
Thanks
