I am in Australia and dont have access to junk yards full of these trucks and i have the only truck like mine in Sydney and everyone loves it.
My vehicle is a 1993 GMC c1500 2x4 5.7 4L60e, the original engine is leaking oil, tired and had poor ownership since it was improted. I have a fresh 408sbc and a 750 holley vacuume sec carb i want to install.
I just found if i remove the tbi and swap the old 350 motor the gearbox will require a stand alone control unit. there around $450 to $650 bucks.
i just found the 4l60e has connection on the brake light switch on the brake pedal, and the speedo in the dash will not work as its linked into the tbi and the auto gearbox.
what a mess.
i want to drop my fresh 408 chev in and run a 750vac sec carb i have spare.
i dont want to start getting into changing instrument/ speedo panels as most of the aftermarket stuff is junk anyway and the factory setup works perfect.
what a nightmare just the swap the engine.
i dont want an LS as there too expensive here used,
i dont want a holley efi as there un reliable and wont be long till its obsolete.
