Hi everyone. I am new to VV. I have a 1969 G-10 that came with 230/250 that i will gladly remove for a V8. I can get a Chevy 400, but dont know if it will go in as easy as a 350 will? Would some feed me their knowledge please.

I did some inspector work. I didn't find anything about the 400 being a big block.

It should fit but make sure you beef up the cooling system or you will have issues with the 400.
