i am swapping a banks turbocharged 7.3 year unknown (1991) i think, into my old u-haul box truck (1989). The u-haul had a blown head gasket. Bubbles in the radiator and ruff running. The new engine has wires going to what i think is the injector pump. the old has air lines. i have no idea how to deal with this. I also do not know if i should keep the turbo. its a box truck, i do not care about speed or power. the old one had plenty.

The air lines to the injection pump is for the c6 transmission, the new engine came from a e4od(wires on the injection pump), all you have to do is to is swap the sensor(with the air lines) to the new engine. It's easy 2 small torx bits and it's off, just make sure to take a picture of how the sensor (with air lines) is situated on the old injection pump and then reinstall it exactly as it was on the new engine.
Others will chime in how to properly set that sensor on the injection pump
