    What is involved in replacing a 5.2 with a 5.9

    I bought a few trucks recently and one is a 2000 1500 2WD with a knocking 5.2 Automatic. A friend of mine has a new 5.9 long block still wrapped up in plastic. So my question is, what needs to be done to make it work where a 5.2 was? Mainly with the electronics. Thanks for your help.

    How much less weight

    Anyone know the weight savings of a pr of Edelbrock SB aluminum heads and a RPM intake over the cast iron parts? Also while we are on the subject. Is there any weight savings of a RMS front suspension with coil overs and a rack and pinion also with light weight Wilwood discs?
