CHEAP 454 UPGRADE

I am building a budget 1935 Ford truck rat rod and wondered if you could help with some basic engine mods. I have a complete running 1973 big-block Chevy truck chassis with all the components. What would be the cheapest and most direct route to wake this engine up? I’m looking more for torque than big horsepower. I know this was the low point on the performance scale but it was too good of a deal to pass up. It has a Turbo 400 and 4.10:1 rear gears.
