nice truck,love it as a 4x4... a 700 trans wont hold up very well behind your 454...you can find a divorced 205 trans case from an older dodge pickup, from the 70's it has the front output shaft on the passenger side , ...or look around for a 400/205 married setup...a 350/205 setup in my opinion isnt strong enough to go behind a 454....or you could go sm465/205 if you want a manual tranny....some guys will argue about the strength of some of these automatics,but I have a 400/205 setup in my suburban with a 454 I wouldnt run a np208 or 203 trans case either,they are crap, some guys will argue that, but they wont hold up as well as a 205
