Well what I want to do is take the interior out of a new truck and like the wiring harness that way I can have power windows auto lights interior lights dual climate controll a/c etc
Basically I want it to look like a 72 blazer on the outside but be a 2008 or newer truck on the inside.

dealer or 600 dollar software or spend less then 600 and get a fully built megasquirt 2 and buy a used msd 6010 box and the software is free for both and you can tune it your self with out all the extra bs to worry about like traction control etc.

That's sounds like a better way to go my only question is by deleting the factory ecu will I lose anything as far as the dash goes
