did you use the computer from the lt1 and the one from the truck or just the one from the lt1 cuz i read i didnt need both cuz the truck never had the underhood one that rests on the coolant resevior. did you buy an after market wiring kit or rig it up and what did you do about the abs but i dont have cc so i dont have to worry about that

That little 5-speed won't handle that much torque. Use the automatic.
