Has anyone looked into a lock up torque converter? It ought to help freeway
milage. They make them for the TH-400

Great to hear of some cheaper motor options, I'd love Manny's diesel, but
I'd love to keep the extra $20-30k in my pocket.

You need to look at it apples to apples. Manny's kit with motor out the door vs an LS with new motor OTD. Or see if you can source your own 6.5 and buy Mannys kit (if he's interested in selling it that way) vs this LS 'kit' and used engine. The labor to install either engine would probably be close either your own or paying someone. JMT
