    Have all your parts ready to install. Chasing down parts mid-swap sucks. Reading past posts should give you an idea of all the parts and pieces you'll need. A good harness and pre-programmed PCM will help a whole lot since you won't have to figure out the wiring.

    I used the hoses for a 1 ton truck with a 6.0L. The lower hose was a perfect fit. I actually mounted the upper hose backwards from stock to work with the LS1 water pump.

    Allen&#39;s harness is very neat and clean and the price is hard to beat.
