Big block?

Will a bare 454 block with casting number 14015445, be a good choice for a BB engine for a corvette?

14015445 454 1978-1987 Two-bolt or four-bolt .

Yes it will bolt in. But you will need pulleys for a Big Block and may need to upgrade your cooling system along with new front coil springs even though some people have still used the stock small block springs.
