if you have a donor vehicle the swap isnt that hard the 6.2 will bolt up to your tranny and motor mounts. other than that try to notice the little things that would be different. and i would stay with 6.2 cooling system.

yea but the tranny that is in the truck is a th350 with a 208 transf case, i was told it might not take the extra power from the 6.2L. i can get a 700r4 for next to nothing, but i would rather not spend the extra money if i dont have to.
