That big grey connector in your last pic goes to the shift position detector for the gauges on the new truck you dont need it.Quote:

oh ok...yea i went out and looked at it. im still working on the harness. its tedious but im getting it done. i got the back sets back in with the new carpet and its looks

very happy with the way it came out. this was my first time replacing carpet
so took a huge set back today. my harness fund is gone lol. so i decided to finish doing my wiring harness. once i got all the electric tape and insulation off it wasnt that bad. i got all the wires i dont need taken out and all the ones i need routed and labeled. i just need to order the fuse block relays and obd2 connectors. it was actually pretty easy just very time consuming. ive spent probably about 6 hours on the harness already. ill be out of town this weekend so i cant do anything else to it but ill pick up some insulation and tape on monday and cklean it all up. i also broke the pigtails that go to the injectors when i was removing the harness. got some donated just paid shipping so hopefully those get here next week when i get the fuses and stuff and i can complete it. used www.lt1swap.com as a guide and was exremely detailed. walked through every step of the way.
heres all the wiring i removed

heres my harness all labled and seperated

hopefully it all works. seems pretty straight forward but theres always something. if all goes well i just saved myself $650
REALLY looking forward to how this goes. I want to do mine, but I'm just not sure. lol Hope it works flawlessly.
it wasnt as hard as i thought it would be honestly. i figure if all else fails ill just order a new one. let me know if you have any questions on it. im pretty good with electrical because my background is in car audio. im on the last few steps with this build. just gotta finish modifying the flywheel then ill be ready to drop in the motor and wire it up.Quote:

finally got my motor dropped in. thanks to lt1firehawk for the hoist! so i guess those ebay mounts are all wrong so ill be getting the transdapt mounts. also the mount cups dont line up with the holes in the polymounts. so ill find some vortec truck mounts because the ones i got were off of an older chevy.
