Looks like a good day to go find something worthwhile to do. It would be great if I had some ideas.
Go to some junkyards and see if you can find a nice 454 to re-build.
Is that the engine you are building or are you saying I should build another one?
(I really don't need one, for anything.)
No, I'm building a 400 small block.
I figured if you had a nice torquey 454 lying around, you could find a use for it. (Truck, hot-rod, boat, race car, motor home, etc)
