Default 454 Lsx

Hey was wondering about how much power a 454 LSX would produce and I guess more importantly what kinda gas mileage would I get in my RCSB truck, my 5.3 gets over 20 on the highway if any one has naturally aspirated big cubes let me know the power and the mpg!

u could however find a place to pull an old 454 out of. Theres a place here that has a couple laying around. They're only supposed to be making about 240 TOPS--according to the specs of that yr (about 99). That might be an option?

Default Slp 402

SLP sells the 402 with intake manifold and injectors but not the covers for about $7300 I wonder what kind of power that puts out and if that would be the way to go I still would still like to retain good gas mileage!
