454 back to original 350 swap info
 

So my 1972 gmc jimmy has a 454 in it, and I've been slowly but surely restoring the truck back to original. I would like to put the 350sbc/350 turbo back into it. But how am I supposed to know what parts I have and don't have. Is there any good info you guys or girls can give me? I have a guy who has an engine and trans from a 72 as a good start but, from there where do I go? Finding things like brakets, hoses etc.any help would be greatly appreciated.:gmc2:

Donor truck? Around here you can find some old '72s that are rusted out but are still original with respect to the running gear and there are many similarities between the trucks and Blazer/Jimmys especially under the hood.
Just a suggestion.

I am swapping out the driveline in my 72 Blazer now. 350 sbc / 350 th / np205 will be available including accessories. It won't be available however for a couple of months yet. Maybe an option for you if your not in a hurry. I'm in Ontario, about 2.5 from border at Port Huron or Detroit.
