OK, here's the first of many additions. I bought a 2001 Jimmy with a super clean body and interior that had been repo'd. Bad part is the tow truck driver took it from a repair shop while the engine was out for repair! Bank was pissed! I'm not though! So, I bought a 383 from the owner of Kansas City Speedway, 425hp on pump gas and Im getting ready to drop it in. trying to make a descision on trans. I like the old turbo 400 which I happen to have a spare, but really would like a t-56 6 speed. Seems like a great way to go, but man are they proud of 'em! A 700r4 or a 4l60 seems ok too, but I am wondering about computer and shifting. Ideas on how to bypass the computer for the trans, etc? I am also pricing a rear 4 link or ladder bar set-up, and although I'm kinda tight I may go with a tub job. Anyone done it on a Jimmy or Blazer here? I've done a few for other cars, but any info is appreciated.
