No one that I know of, Sounds like youre on the right track with using gauges trans and t case. Biggest thing will be getting the wiring harness and motor mounts made. Youll need to figure out ac and heater lines, but that may be pretty straight forward

Yeah that would be sick a lot of work wiring and everything else but I would say total worth it.

when you finish send you work plans and everything you did up here:) but serious, that sounds like it could be difficult and take a while

I doubt it would be too hard.... al the sensors tuning relies on are part of the motor and harness so you should have them anyway.

How much different are the motor mounts going to be than the 7.3 in there? Would he not be able to use the 6.4 mounts bolted to his frame? If you think about it, the 7.3 came in both the SD's and the OBS's, and the 7.3's swap without a problem. So seeing as the frame on the SD's hasnt changed hardly(that i know of) shouldnt it be relativly easy to swap? These are all assumptions, as i dont actually know of differences.

that would be one bad ass truck. If your doing motor, trans, guages, computers and all. I would think it would be more fab and deciding where to put everything.
