Default Quick truck coil question

I read in a thread that the harness is different. Is this true? I know I need the bracket and MSD truck wires.....but will my 2001 camaro harness still plug in?

TIA

dur dur dur. Thanks, but I mentioned that in the first post. So far we have differing opinions on whether or not the harnesses are plug and play. I think I am leaning with PSJ's advise......don't know why

There is a "mini-harness" that goes from the big connector on your main engine harness to the individual coils themselves. That harness is different. F-body "mini-harness" won't plug into the coils...need a truck "mini-harness" The big connector that connects to the engine harness is the same on both.

Correct, the main harness plug will hook up the to factory wiring, but the individual coil plugs are different. You need the truck coil harnesses with the coils
