Out of curiosity, would it be possible to tear out all of the computer controlled garbage on these trucks and drop in a carb powered old school set up without it being a nightmare?
I'm sick of this computer controlled crap. I want simple and to the point and dependable. For example, the fact that some stupid $42 sensor could leave me stranded on the side of the road and cost $600 bucks to repair after all is said and done (tow/diag/repair) just doesn't sit well with me.
In theory, for ***** 'n giggles, would I be able to rip out all the electronics and computer crap and be able to convert to a no nonsense carb set up? Would love an old school Edelbrock carb/intake setup with headers. Would the tranny still function strictly mechanical if all the computer controlled stuff was removed?
