Default 125 Powershot from Chevelle to truck

I have a 125 powershot kit that was on my chevelle. I now want to put it on my truck.

My truck has a lq4 (stock) with long tube headers. Computer is from Speartech. Tranny is the stock 5 speed. Motor makes about 340 horses right now with 400 ft pounds.

This will be just for fun on the street. Just something to play with.

What issues am I looking at? How can I spray this motor and not constanly light up the tires and be esay on this weak 5 speed and clutch?

I currently shift this motor right at 5,000. If you try and turn it anymore then the dang tranny will not allow you to get into third gear. Kind of a pain. This motor really needs the GTO or T-56 tranny. I have a Hurst shifter in there, but it really does not help any. Shifter arm is really long.

Not sure there is a good answer to spraying this motor with the 5 speed.
