I am not opposed to using the factory EIS as long as its reliable.  I want to be able to use this vehicle for extended cruising in other countries so reliability or at least being repairable is what I need as well.  I dont plan to push a ton extra out of the om648 but it will be pushing around this 10,000lb truck when its all built and ready.  I am looking forward to making some progress!!


Bed is off now its time to get the cab loose so I can bring it up and down in the garage for test fitment.  I need to find a nag1 or w5a580 soon so I can start mounting this thing!  

Need to pressure wash and start cutting everything out that I will not need.  

whipple what do you think about the zf8hp?  or should I stick with the w5a580?  I want the lowest overdrive possible to get me a good cruising rpm @ about 65mph.  What do these motors like to cruise at?  so far I think im at about 2600rpm at 65mph with the planned build with the w5a580
