There is a recent BB thread in one of the forums. You can find it with a search.

For LOTS of HP of course.

Re: Big Block Installation in 95 Z28 Camaro

A buddy just got through with his install and it ain't no bolt in. If ya don't have fab skills and the tools to make the stuff to put it in it probably won't be worth it to ya. There is a bunch of stuff to be made and ya need to modify a tube "K" member and pan to get it low enough in the car. If ya don't every time ya "hook" it it will stand on the bumper. IMO the engine needs to be moved forward and down from the stock location and it will need plenty of chassis work and those silly training wheel's that hang out the back.
His is 900+HP on motor with 600HP of hose not your everyday driver.

Simple answer, without all the fuss.

For less money and less hassle, you can buy a 454 small block crate engine from World and it will make more HP than you'll have any luck using on street tires.
