I had the motor out in one afternoon. I had the other motor installed and wired
in another three. So 4 days total.

The only problem I had was, the first harness was from a 1999 6.0l with 4l80e
which would have been more problems that it was worth, to re pin the entire harness. So after acquiring a 2003 harness, tac and dbw pedal I was good to go.

If not for the wrong harness I would have been ready for the muffler shop the morning of the fifth day.

No the dash harness is my original. The first harness that I purchased was from a 1999 2500 with a 4l80E
