8.1/Allison swap 1999 Tahoe

[b454rat]

Local junkyard has this combo already out. ECM and harness is there. It was a running driving truck, the t-case took a dump. I'm pretty sure a standard 241 will bolt up, the pattern looks the same. I haven't found much on swapping this combo in a truck, would think Tahoe would be the same. I can get the setup for a decent price I think, just want to know how much of a pain it is, and don't see why it wouldn't be worth it. I know the tranny's are pretty big, but the hoe has a 3" b/l so clearance shouldn't be an issue.
