Im looking for someone who did the conversion in Arkansas on an 89 red & White reg cab? I recently bought the truck and just had a few questions for them. I think the name is like Speedracer or something like that. Thanks

Hey guys,
I did the conversion, but I am not the guy from Arkansas who sold it on ebay. I owned the truck for 6 years, sold it to the guy in arkansas, who had it for a month and then put it on ebay. He did a few strange things to it that I may not be able to help you with, but what kind of questions do you have?

Contact Jared at www.currentperformance.com I just got my harness for a 2002 s-10 with a 5.3L. He can build the harness so that all the factory guages will work. The harness is built from scratch so there is no cutting and splicing needed.
