im soo confused on what parts i need? lol
Its really not difficult at all. You can reuse your crossmember. It will just need to be slid back and will utilize 2 holes that are already there. You will need to redrill the other 2 but not a big deal. OR, you can be lazy like me and not get around to it yet but still drive the truck.
You'll also need the adapter for whatever carb setup you have to connect the TV cable. Then also the TV cable. Id recommend a pressure gauge you can get for 35 bucks from Bowtie Overdrives to make sure you have it setup correctly.
Thats really all you'll need. My 350 tranny lines went right in to my 700 ports without issues. Its been about a month and I'm getting 5-6 better MPGs
