Exclamation 1986 454 mated to 1983 700R4 on a K5?

I have a 83 K5 im taking out the 350 and want to slap in a 1986 454. Would that mate up to my 700R4? or what would I have to do? Also motor mounts do I have to drill holes on my K5 or weld them on?

The trans is a bolt up. Just need to beef it up the trans if the 454 has some grunt. You can get C/K pick-up motor mounts for a big block & bolt them in to the crossmember. You'll prolly need to drill though.

With a vehicle that weighs that much and a big block with some grunt, I would expect that 700R4 to
