You gonna put a 60e or 80e in it?
If it's a 60e I wouldn't remove the TM, heavy vehicle+heavy tires - TM = busted 60e.
Not sure exactly what year it is out of. I am guessing it is probably early 2000's though because he said it has a drive by cable throttle body on it, which he preferred. I don't much care. The Yukon it came out of I was told had only 70K miles on it.

I will be bolting it up to my existing pretty beefy TH400. If it lived behind the 496BB, I bet it can hold up to the 5.3.
