Nick - While you ponder purchasing a reprint of a 1954 shop manual (or maybe not smile ), you can always just check out this electronic 1954 Chevrolet Truck Shop Manual to help you with your work on the engine. wink

You can also find a 1929-54 Chevy Master Parts and Accessories Catalog as well as a later 1929-57 Chevrolet Master Parts and Accessory Catalog that will help you when trying to ID parts. There are many other publications and documents in this Chevy Old Car Manual Project website that you can easily refer to, all free of cost thanks to some very dedicated individuals! thumbs_up
