Default my lsx swap

bout to start my swap, Iv'e got a 2wd 95 shortbed gmc . My plan is to swap out my 2000 ls1 and t-56 combo from my 2000ss. I really want to get this truck in the mid 12,s and still be driveable. Any pointers on best way to use my computer and wiring harness from my car. Thanks for any help.

Already got the car in the high 11's with all stock internals, 10bolt, na. Just really want a sleeper truck. To bust a few stangs and vettes. It'll take some work yes but be very rewarding i think.

y not just build a 6.0 with a th350 in the truck? will be more consistent and quicker than t56

aww man,
i loves the th350 for the *** whoopins.. ive taken out cobras and other cars with my 3rd gen, now that car pisses off alot of ppl, its ratbait for stangs.
mine got manual steering, th350 and 4k, also.
but i cant deny i dont enjoy the wheelstand on race day
but the t56 is fun for scaring off the ricers and stangs on the streets and impressing your buddies on roll races.
