Hello,
I am planning to swap engines this weekend. Before I do, I thought it a good idea to check with all of you. I have a 1994 engine that I am putting in a 1995 truck. The replacement engine is complete, including turbo, manifolds, wiring harness & computer. Are there any compatability issues that I need to be aware of before I start? My thoughts were to install the engine using the attached wiring harness, to prevent mis-wiring and save some time, but the old computer so that it matches the truck. Will the '94 injector pump work correctly with the '95 computer? If I have to use the '94 computer, will the transmission be affected? Also, I have read a little about these engines having to "re-learn" TDC. Will this be an issue, since the inj pump and crank have not been separated? Any tricks or tips to make the job easier?
Thanks, Mike.
