Need Help Quick
This isnt that hard of a conversion. Its been done like a million times. Ive got a 6.0 LS2 in my 99 Camaro. Im wondering if I should use the ECU outta the GTO to put in my camaro or just find an ECU outta another 99-02 Camaro and hook it up that way. How would I get the GTO Computer to work. My camaro is gutted and has no internal electrical, So I guess I would just need the fuse boxes and Engine Harness right? Please help and post your opinions. Thanks guys

If you are going to have to do your electrics any how due to it being gutted I'd keep the GTO PCM and harness which would need much the same supplies etc as the Camero PCM. Also the GTO LS2 will have a fly by wire throttle which a Camero PCM will not be able to control. Keep things simple and try not to spend where you don’t need to.

I tend to agree with RHDV8 but there are some things I am aware of to be concerned with that I don't know what to tell you:
1. What to do with the Camaro's BCM functions (lights, locks, security, etc)
2. Will the F-body gauges work with the GTO PCM?
Everything else should be straight forward.

2. The GTO PCM puts out the same signals for the tach and water temp (as long as you use a matched sender. You can always use a Dakota Digital SGi-5 for the Speedo if you need to (more than likely not) I don’t think there is any other gauge that the PCM deals with that would cause a problem?
If you can swap an LS2 into a Mazda and get every thing working ok it can’t be too hard to do the same in a CamAro now can it.
