If the 454 is fuel injected ('87 was the first year for EFI in Chevy trucks), then you'll need the computer, wiring harness, fuel tank and lines from the donor truck.

If you don't care about the fuel injection, then you'll need an intake manifold with carburator and possibly an electric fuel pump. (I don't know what year they quit putting the fuel pump mount on the big blocks)

If the 454 is fuel injected an you want to switch to carburator, you'll also need a new distributor because the computor adjusted the timing on the '87 and the computer on the '84 probably will have wrong timing info.

Good luck,
