I have a new project in the works and need a lil help and would like to know if you could tell me about how much you charge and if you are interested?

I have a 2005 LLY engine it will be going in a back halved 56 chevy truck we will be using a liberty w/ bruno for the tranny.
I have the complete wiring harness from the donor truck and both computers and gas pedal assembly what will it take to get this going in the right direction for the engine to run and can you help me with programming and other issues that may come up?
Thanks for your time

From what I've heard the hardest part is getting the gauges to work, but this truck will likely have a custom cluster so that shouldn't be a problem.

With the original ECM, the tuning is pretty easy actually.

Well, easy with EFILive.

Is this an all out race project, or street rod?

lonnie is a member here also and doing something similar, he would probably be a great help, however he is also very busy piecing his creation together

ill PM him and ask him for some advice on this if you would like?

I'm here doing the same thing with an 85 pickup. If you have the body wiring harness & also the body computer, just buy a used gauge panel if you do not mind modifying your dash. Otherwise aftermarket gauges/senders can be used without problems It will run without the factory dash.

You have to program out the anti-theft so it will run without the stock column & body computer. Mine starts & runs on the garage floor.

With a different transmission, I'm not sure about the wiring mods needed. Are you starting with a manual trans wiring harness?
