This truck is always changing forms.

Latest update: Holley EFI fuel/spark management.
Tuning possibilities are endless.

kept the dbw and works flawlessly.

Some very important features we kept as well and are functional.
-ac
-PRDL switch and indicator
-all stock CAN gauges work
-Door locks automated (like factory)
- this won't mean much to most, but it was a very important to keep this; stock key works. hint, no ignition when key is in crank position.

So it's possible, integrate the stock chassis and engine harness with the new Holley Dominator controller.

Next, add the boost control and meth features.

btw, the 220lb+ injectors act like stock injectors using the Dominator.
Exhaust smell is unnoticeable and start up fires immediately.
More of an fyi post, for those interested in something similar.

thanks

Thats awesome...how much was the ecu and harness with it? I think when I looked it was in the $2000 range, not sure how its moved around since then. Are you using it for the transmission as well?

Nelson Performance

We purchased all the harnesses for dbw, engine, injectors, transmission, and there are two other I/O harnesses we got, this truck will need them; price was a tad over $3000. We will need to get the boost controller harness/parts and meth.
This Dominator is fully integrated and offers all the modules/boxes you need; all in one unit. Well worth the money and the options and features are incredible. (used previous versions/models in the past).

Transmission calibration is awesome. It's raced inspired and just makes sense, no bs like the stock/oem pcm. Fully adjustable.
Manual mode, auto mode, might add the tap up/down feature late.
One thing I like about the trans line pressure, I can increase it based on map/boost. RPM and torque can't do it alone as modifiers.
Tuning, once you get it all baseline'd, is a breeze! Only thing I need to worry about now is a long enough road to stretch this bigrig out at 30psi.
The dyno gets us very close, but this is a hiway runner.

Last thing related to the old harness is to get the remote start working

Now we have about 10 more trucks to convert lol.

Something else we figured out how to do:

The cluster no longer has evidence/light/messages/warning etc, not even an option for:

TPMS

With these tires and no pressure sensors installed.
405/25/24's

and ya the wheel speed sensors work with the Dana60

Got a full picture of the truck with the new wheels.
Awesome work

Nelson Performance

Ya, I'll find some good ones and post up later.

How's this one, lol?
Of course this pic is during the mist of converting to the Holley.
Notice fuse block will be under the console. Tons of wiring; don't try this at home.
Moving the fblock really cleans up under the hood.

btw, Holley Tuning going great, truck is hauling ***!
