    1962 Suburban Engine and EFI swap.

    Here is a swap I did for my boss, in his 1962 Chevrolet Suburban.

    Before the wrenches were turned, or the torches came out, it had a straight 6, with a 3 speed manual trans. The owner grew tired of the lack of power and the trans popping out of 3rd gear, and wanted something a bit more reliable.

    I tried to convince him to ad EFI to the existing 6 cylinder, but he ultimately decided to go with a drivetrain swap, due to the tranny issues that were also there.
    What I ended up installing was a 350 SBC, TBI, with a 700R4. I used a '7747 fpr the swap, due to the simplicity of it and the close match to drivetrain going in. I didn't want to go to the '7427 with this one, simply because I hadn't figured out all the tranny delete parameters yet, and didn't really have time to screw around with it.
