Default NEED HELP! wiring advice..

I'm trying to make some progress on my 88 lsx mustang. Were dropping a mostly stock ls1 out of a 01 ss. We were planning on using a 155mph speedo from a camaro, but after talking to Painless today discovered most harnesses are only engine. I honeslty have no clue what I am doing here, kind of shooting from the hip. I already have the stock computers, and was planning on selling the stock harness.

What should i do?!? Is there another company who makes a complete harness that would do everything I want it to do, or would I be better off tearing apart the old harness and modding it for my car? (that looks and sounds like horrible, boring, tedious work)


Thanks for any help!




my car..

why do you want to use the f body cluster? imo, modify the stock harness your self and call it a day.

If you will search, in this section for schematics, you'll find all of the 99-02 engine schematics posted. I know they are there, because I posted them.

You can get standalone harnesses on ebay for less than $450 comes with gage wires. The easiest route for gages will be to go aftermarket.
