360 to 414 stroker questions on ecm
Hey I have a 95 5.9 2500 with auto trans. I found a stroker kit and I have no clue as what to do with the obd1 ecm. I found a place that I can send one in to have it reflashed. But do I need to go that far? Was going to pick up an engine from the junk yard and making it a project. If I have to have the ecm reflashed I might as well go all the way and do my camshaft. Also where the heck can I get better fuel injectors
Wow you're asking some pretty hard questions. Since you have OBD1 life is going to be a lot harder on you. I don't know where you can get your ecm flashed for a stroker engine. You asked do you have to have the ecm flashed? Yes you do. Now as for your cam shaft, you bet you have to change it. Doing a stroker and then choking the engine by running the stock cam would just be crazy. You're going to want to rebuild your engine or a jy engine. You will most likely have bad heads and need to replace them. As far as injectors go do a search online and you will find tons of companies that sell larger injectors.
Are you sure it is a 414ci stroker? Most are 406 or 408ci kits. I'm building a 408 out of my 5.9 and there is a link to my build in my sig.

Ok so then my only option is a stand alone. Mega squirt has some good stuff from what I hear. But what should I do about the auto trans? Convert to manual? I don't know much about my trans, I want to say it's an electronic shifter but I'm not sure
Just looked at my build sheet I have the 46rh transmission. That means I don't have any electronic system to shift that, right, and all the shifting is done by hydraulic pressure?

This is where i found the 414 stroker.
Why do you want to go .060 on your bore? You are correct that your 46RH doesn't have all the electronics that a 46RE has. As to being stand alone I can't comment on.
Good luck with your build which ever way you decide to go.
