What's the stock HP and TQ rating on a 1977 3/4 ton pickup 454 big block?

Just wondering, figured it might have some nice torque and I'd throw it in the camaro and have some fun or I'll just do a quick head/intake/cam swap and have a LOT of fun for the spring.

Thanks.

255 with 360 is about right for a 454 P/U application. Remember you would want to change the cam so the HP and TQ #'s really mean nothing to you.
