Re: 427 tall deck in a 1979 K25 GMC

I totally missed the "K" part. Doh!!! You are right about the 5 speed. HOWEVER there may be an out for you. GM put SM465's in the big trucks with the 13" clutch. With that said, you may be able to simply swap the input shaft and be done. Or you may be able to swap output housing and output shaft onto the big truck 4 speed. That would do it for you.
