Let me first start off by saying that I'm not really yup on diesels, but I've been around the block with cars in general, have done engine swaps, frame-offs ect... Two years ago I got a bug to build an RV out of a schoolbus. Picked up a '99 p-42 chassis Bluebird bus, and had a ball doing the build.

100,000 miles, always maintained, but a non-turbo. Ive picked up a GM8, and am gathering the parts to put it on. So my question is, do I have to include all the air sensors, ect that are on the manifold, or can I simply swap out the intake, bump my mechanical injection up a smidge, and fire her up? Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question?

If it is a van body you will need the van style heads, manifolds, and gm6 turbo as the only thing that will fit is a center mount.
