I would run the 4911 mech ip in your truck as you were looking for reliability. The 4l80 can be converted over to full manual with a transgo stage 3 kit. It will have all 4 gears and you can just run a wire to lockup the torque converter. The only problem with the setup is the tcc solenoid is a pwm not on off. If you supply it with 12v cont it will fail. Some have put a resistor in line and the solenoid last longer. If you do not want to go manual on the 4l80 a standalone control will be cheaper then making the electronic fuel injection work and last. Do not use a 6.2 ip on the 6.5 maxed it still only put out a little more then a stock setting 4911.
It is amazing how much different opinions I keep hearing! Especially about the 6.2 pump. I have also heard making the electric fuel injection work is piece of cake.

I am not afraid of integrating the wiring... You should check out my ls swap.
