Default big block conversion
Can anyone provide me with a list of things that have to be changed (brackets, pulleys, etc.) to switch a 70 small block to a 454? Also any other challenges that I may face should I choose to attempt this.

thanks

Have you run a search on this subject yet? There are a lot of threads available with all the info you need. When you search, do an advanced search, and check the archive box. Use a lot of different combos like 350, small block, 454, big block, swap...you get the point.
