One other thing you might have to consider is a different driveshaft? Also, did you get the motor mount pads off of the frame itself? It's not really a necessity unless your planning on going the W-30 look-a-like route. The 455 will sit just a little higher on the 350 pads. Not a big deal unless you go with the W25 hood and OAI air cleaner setup. Just complicates things a bit.
BTW, If that Vista is available for any other parts there are probably alot of members that would be interested. Just a thought...Gery.
