It is a 450, the last 4 in 454 means a 179" Wheelbase.
I have a '53 633-50 where the 50 means a 503 engine and the last 3 is the wheelbase and 630 is the model. GMC kept changing their model designations so much that you need a program to keep up.
Earlier models such as AF353 were cabovers. the F meaning cabover?
On yours the F means '47-'50 years, go figure?
Have fun.
'31 Chevy 1 1/2 ton, '42 GMC 2 1/2 ton 6x4, '52 GMC 2 1/2 ton 6x6, '53 GMC 5 ton
