superliner237 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I'm feeling the urge to put an e-7 in my 79 cruiseliner. Unlike my e-7 swap into the MH i did early this year, id like to keep the v-mac set up on this time. Anyone do this ? and I wonder where I could find the info on what makes this system tic. I'm sure it can be dumbed waaay down and still work as it should. How 'bout it guys?

IH Farms 2 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I'm not familiar with vmac but other than the inputs to the ecm on the engine only other thing would be a throttle and speed and maybe coolant level. So as long as you have a complete wiring harness the only thing you'd have to add is a tone wheel and pickup to the output of the trans and a electronic throttle pedal. Also change your tach and speedometer over electronic. Easiest way would be find a donor truck that has same trans and rear end gears as your cruiseliner and swap parts Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/40199-another-brainstorm-brewing/#findComment-291588 Share on other sites More sharing options...
superliner237 Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 Hey, Thanks for the reply. I was gone and for some reason my phone will not get me on here to check things out. I have a 97 ch that will donate the parts. Its a complete running truck, just has rusted so bad all over and under that its just a yard rat at the moment. I ran this truck for years and its strong. hate to see it wasted.

IH Farms 2 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Not a problem. Sounds like it'll turn out nice and with you having a donor truck it'll be easier Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/40199-another-brainstorm-brewing/#findComment-293417 Share on other sites More sharing options...
