wow all this nonsense here about 700r4s... the 454 will do great towing no need to stroke it but heck if the budget is there why not. You don't need to go all out for a tow rig. let us know which casting heads you have a good cam intake and exhaust it will tow that 7000lb trailer with no problem. I've towed car trailers uptown 5000lbs loaded with my setup granted my gears aren't the best for towing now I have a set of 3.08s but on the highway I can pass just about anything I want with no problems. got to admit sure is fun out pulling all of these diesel trucks up mountain passes with this gas engine
