    I had considered it but was leaning towards a 7747 because it already matches my harness and the IAT isn't that beneficial according to what I've read.

    The pressure regulator is inside the TBI unit right? Will stock pressure work for me?

    The truck must use a 3 wire then because I have a gauge.

    If the only thing the oil pressure sender does for the TBI is running the fuel pump, then I can leave it out right?

    So would it be possible to tap into the VSS signal after the DRAC on my truck without affecting the Speedo? If it really benefits the driveability, I'm all for a little extra work.

    I own a 95 Chevy K2500 4x4 that was previously a diesel. After some engine trouble, I swapped the engine with a carbureted 350. The truck is a manual so the conversion was very straight forward....
