    It all depends on how he uses the truck. Drive like an old lady and it will last forever, drive like a highschool kid and it will break the first day.

    Actually if your staying with a fuel injected TBI 454 all that would have to be done is tune chip for 454 fuel tables,etc and you should already have a 4L60E, and with todays updated like billet servos and such you could make it work, heck GM used it in there 93 454SS
