why would you step down on your build to save money on a trans ? the 350 trans could be built to take a 454 ? i think your just shooting your self in the foot trying to put a 350 tran s behind a 454 or 496 in time your going to be putting a 400 trans in it or rebuilding the 350 if there any thing left .the 350 will move it and if you just drive it could work but ? i thinking you are not going EZ on it i busted 400s with the best HD parts money could buy all it takes is spin the wheels out hard and have it hook up you will fine the weak link
