    You would just need to have the VVT tuned out.

    I would think so, as long as the diagnostics are tuned out. Have to check into that a little.

    it's the same as putting a 6.0/6.2 in your truck but keeping the vvt setup. like stated, just tune it out.
    whats wrong with the 6.0? if i was you id try and grab it from them for a descent price

    I just pulled up a 6.2 file and you can disable the VVT.
