The first thing you'll want to do is install an overdrive trans. A shop I worked at in the 80's had one just like it for a shop truck and it didn't mater if it was empty or overloaded, it got 8 mpg with that carbureted 454 and 4.10 gears.

I have a 4L80E swap calculated into my tow vehicle spread sheet. Tracker1 owns a Mr Transmission so I would drop it off for modernization.
Same rations as a TH400, plus 0.75 fourth!!!
