Re: Doing LS Swap - I have no idea what I'm doing!

I appreciate the feedback. I did have one suggestion from a co-worker buddy to use a Holley Terminator X computer and harness. The downside of that, it's about $1000. My accountant (wife) probably won't ok that type of expense, but, it's on my optional list.

Details of my truck:
sbc350 from an '88 Suburban (supposedly)
700r4 Transmission
3.73 Gears
Stock gas tank with a Holley external fuel pump under the cab
Free radiator from a '73 Camaro from my co-worker
Lowered 3.5" front, 5" back. All new suspension components

Current wiring is somewhat of a mess. It's been spliced I don't know how many times. Under the dash looks like a rats nest. Speedo doesn't work (not hooked up) I'm guessing due to the transmission swap in it. Temp gauge didn't work. Oil pressure didn't work. I now have a aftermarket gauge cluster to monitor those, and I use a GPS that came with the truck to monitor speed.
