Turbo EFI6

[Joe Boucher]

Depending how much of a purist you are, you might have the easiest time
retrofitting a GM system.  Getting the ecm, wiring harness and sensors
from a T-Type or GN Buick (expensive I would guess compared to a GM
truck) or Syclone/Typhoon (more expensive) would be a start.  The
software to reprogram the proms is available at the home pages.
