I just purchased a 1967 SS (4P) that is built as a 325HP/396The current engine in the car ( Arrive next week) is an unknown 454 dressed as a 396. The brackets are later model brackets. I want for the engine bay to look correct at least for the cloned 325HP, maybe even a 375HP. For either I want the correct early brackets that I believe used the short water pump?. The car has factory power steering. DOes anyone have a list of what pullys and brackets need to be collected, and will they work with the 454 as they did on the 396? Im not much on BBs, more of a SB guy for last 40 years.
Next would be finding the correct heads, intake, carb for the correct look. Again not a Big Block guru so researching a lot so I dont "break" something.
