Trailer hitch and LT1 swap Q's

[jiggityjoe87]

Hey everybody it's been a while I haven't been doing much with my suburban. But now I've come into a little money and have decided it's time to do some serious work. First thing I want to know is what trailer hitch is everybody using I went looking for a good class III hitch and the parts store said they only make a small hitch for my 1970 suburban 2wd 1/2 ton. Can anybody shed some light on this as to what brand they have and where to get it.

Next up is the real test for me. I have finally decided that fuel injection via an LT1 is going to give me what I'm looking for out of my suburban. right now I have an exhausted 350 with a couple cylinders running low compression so my burb is a real slouch and gas hog at the same time (double whammy). I'm in the process of locating the right engine/tranny/computer set up. I know this swap has already been done in the past I was just wondering if there was anything you would tell me before I start doing the work to save me some major headaches.

I was even contemplating using an aftermarket wiring kit to upgrade the existing fuse block does anybody have a brand that was simple and easy to adapt. cuz the last time I rewired an entire car was a VW bug with a summit racing harness designed for domestic vehicles (oh what fun that was).

anyways i thank you ahead of time for your input and I can't wait to start working !!!

You could probably get a proper hitch for your Burb from Early Classic Enterprises.
