Well you can use the efi and the auto you have in your truck. all you have to do is to trick the ecu into thinking it has a man trans. Just dont give those wires power. Thats what we did on our jeeps. anytime we did a newer motor swap, we tricked the comp into thinking that it was hooked up to a stick. Never gave us any problems

I have a 4bbl holley if you want it......

Now that it has taken me a lot of time just to get caught up, it is time for me to head off to bed. i dont work until 3 tomorrow so ill be here most of the day. Talk to you all later

Good morning guys... looks like a busy morning shaping up for me, it's never good when the phone starts ringing before I get here.

I failed the background check needed to get the speechwriter job, something about mental issues and the crowd I hang out with.

Looks like you all are still stuck with me!
