Finally some progress with my Allegro

Hi Jimmy, the good thing about Chevy 454 engines is that they are alike for many years. The transmission mount, motor mounts, exhaust manifolds, and more stayed the same for a long time. Around 1990, they went to fuel injection but your intake should bolt on. Check with a junk yard and have them check their exchange book to see what years of 454 will fit in the beast. You should be able to find a newer engine in better shape than a mid 80's. Good luck with the project.
