I have a 78 Bonneville that sports a 301 wheezer that finally gave it up a few months back. Originally, the plan was to build a stroker Pontiac and install a built 2004R and just have a toy. Plans change with life, so now I need a dependable, but some-what fun, daily driver and I have a 5.3L pickup engine with computer and harness just sitting in my shop, so...looks like it's LS swap time.
If anyone has info, pointers, tried and true scenarios, etc., please feel free to post. My real concerns are fueling, theft deterrent bypass, and my lack of a computer controlled transmission. I'm really interested in fuel tank swap-ability for fueling. Is there a stock tank/pump combo that I can retrofit to supply the 60psi I need?
Or am I customizing an old tank?
Like I say, any input is welcome and if there is a thread that can help me out on this, that would work too.
I'll post pics and specs along the way
