Your question is not too clear, Chevy from the factory never made a DOHC 454

These will get you close; but it's still a pushrod head. They flow like the wind and are only 100 Bens!

Without the existence of such parts I'd have to say it is impossible. You cannot take them off of any other engine and put them on a 454. They have to be designed specifically for a Chevy big block.
