Why's that? No inspection=no problem, right? Where you would go about getting harness and computers?

 

[LBZrcks]

It would be pretty cool, but couldn't do anything with no harness or ecm

You would have to adapt LBZ parts to it. Machine the heads for LBZ injectors, and make sure the reluctor is 58 tooth.

Nothing but a curiousity. But it SHOULD bolt right into the Colorado, since it now comes with a V8 option.

I like how the guy thinks it fits an '08 or '09.

Sure, a 2008 Henway, or a 2009 Peter4.

A year ago I probably would have bought it just to tear it apart to look at it.

I took a New Year's Resolution not buy anything that serves no purpose. So no 4.5L Dmaxes, no Fords, and no Dodges...

Whoa, that was the engine I was gonna buy til I realized it was a 4.5L. Pretty much all the guy knows about it is thanks to me.

I imagine if it was a brand new 6.6 it would have been long gone awhile ago.

I did the shipping calculator and it said it would ship parcel post for 9.20 all the way to NC!!! Somethings not right with this one?

 

[05smoker]

I marked it last night as well just to see what it goes for.

 

[duratothemax]

I just sold a bunch of parts so I might think about buying it, depending what the bidding gets to....

If you don't mind me asking, what would be your plan for it?

You would probably figure out a way to make it run you fool. :spit::thumb:

I could probably just %*#)@! rig up a bunch of these in parallel, that would probably be enough computing power to at least get it to idle.
