Before you do anything you need to get your budget together as well as goals as it's hard to give you any advice on which way to go without them. If you are wanting a fully built 454 then hope you have $10-15k to spend, but if you do and you're a nitrous fan then a lsx with a two system 300 shot would be a great combo.
