We had a guy, back in Vermont, who did quite a few mechanical IP swaps, and, far as I know, he always did it on a manual, or swapped a manual in....

Any accessories on the front of the truck that could block airflow? What's the outside air temperature when the engine temps seem too high?...

I have a large bias against computers... My brain just doesn't mesh with using them, working on them, ect I converted my 98 3500 tow truck as it...

A little catch-up. Finally got the tranny back in and been going through the wiring process of the Compushift. So, I finally got everything hooked...
