Basically, not really, they are what they are. Engines were not build for fuel economy and alterations to that end are essentially an exercise in futility.
My 72 C10 is set up with a 454 V8 and a 4 barrel carb and it gets around 12-14 mpg in town, depending on how i'm driving it. I don't take it on the highway, so I couldn't tell you that much.
The price of GM 454 ci engine depends on whether it is an original restoration piece or if its performance motor. A basic long block 454 can go from 2000$ and up. GM Performance Parts 454 crate motors can be 4000-19000$.
the biggest engine i can recall was the 454 ci and that was when it was right off of the assembly line it could also have a 350 Chevy
The 1979 454 CI engine from Chevrolet features 245 horsepower as well as 4000 rpms. This figure only covers the V8 version of this engine.
you can and you can't. i say both because the block is to small but you could take the time to make the block's cylinders bigger by drilling them and making them wider, you would also have to look at the crank shaft room since this is 454 casting
267 ci 305 ci 327 ci 350 ci 400 small block and big block ci 454 big block simply any engine made by cheverolet make sure you get the right transmission, drive shaft, and rear end
It depends on the engine, transmission,and how you drive. I have a 3 speed manual transmission with a 300 CI 6 cylinder engine. I get about 15-17 MPG.

Approximately 5 quarts, including the capacity of the oil filter, is required for the 350 ci motor. If the motor is the 454 ci unit, then an 6 quarts will suffice. The best way to determine the proper level is to start with the numbers shown here, fill the motor, allow it to run for several minutes, then re-check the level on the dipstick. Depending on how much oil was drained previously and the capacity of the replacement filter, another 1/4 to 1/2 a quart may be necessary.
They are the engine serial number and the suffix code. The suffix codes can easily be decoded. For example, a CRV suffix code is a 454, 450 HP, 4-speed transmission. If the serial numbers that precede "CRV" match the VIN of the car, then you have a numbers matching LS6 4-speed car.
