    6.5 to 454 vortec swap

    Sounds like a plan. Thank you for your input. I’m guessing the push button 4x4 would be pretty easy to wire into the existing gen 1 dash. If not I can just find a used manual t case to throw in.

    Sweet. Thank you. I know that it’s the same body and everything will fit just was looking for some info on that stuff. I’ll update when I start ripping the suburban down here in a few weeks.

    I just got a 94 3500 dually 4x4 crew that used to be a 6.5 diesel. No engine or transfer case or front driveline. Everything else is there including newly overhauled trans. It has the nicer package with power windows locks tac cluster all that. I have a 1997 3/4 HD suburban with a 454 I’ve been...
