I am looking at getting a 454 from a early 90's ss p/u with a turbo 400 trans, has anyone heard bad news about this motor?

I am currently working on a new bed. I will have photos up in a couple of weeks. Put your shades on now!

Stock frame with a 1981 Trans Am front clip with a coil and a half taken out, 3 inch drop block on the axle. I would highly recomend a mustand II cross member, it helps keep as many stock mounting holes as possible. The sub frame added a lot of extra work, and no stock equipement fit without modifacation.

Good luck

Just curious, what frame is under it? Sweet looking truck. I'm re-storing a 48 . 1st time and looking for different ideas.

I would like to know what everyone thinks good or bad.
Are there any pics you would like to see that I do not have posted?
