has anyone here done this? I have the truck, want to build the engine so it seems like a good combo. I realize I would need to have the computer completely reflashed because I am planning on a mechanical injection engine. I would also need a new fuel system, tank, pumps, lines, everything. probably need to rebuild the tranny to take the tq, its got 140k on it anyway.

any ideas?

thanks

My opinion is that this is a worthwhile project.
The best deal would be to do a stand alone computer on the tranny.
The 4L60E thats probaly in it will do the job but will take some HD goodies to get it up to the task. Or you could do a 4L80 box and really be up to snuff.

Good luck and keep us posted
