    Swapping a 454 into a a truck that had a 350

    I was wondering what would be needed to swap a 454 from a 1995 k2500 into my 2000 c3500. My 3500 has a 350 with a 4l80. The 1995 is a 4wd and has a 5 speed. Would the 4l80 bolt straight up to the big block? Would I need to change the wiring harness for the 454?

    Loss of voltage while driving.

    I’m looking at buying a 98 k2500, owner states the power draws while running only, not when parked. I’m worried that he wouldn’t be selling it if it was as easy of a fix like an alternator or a bad connection. Thoughts?
