Default Crank Position Sensor on 6.0 - Where?

I have a recent thread on here saying I have one last electrical connection to hook up on my new 6.0 block but do not know where it goes to. Someone suggested that it is the carnk position sensor which should be located right above the starter (like it is on the 5.7). Does anyone know if it is moved on the 6.0 or if I am just an idiot and it is in the same spot?

Any pictures/depiction that could help? I tried looking for it on my stock 5.7 block and don't remember seeing anything on there either. I could easily be overlooking it though.

The crank position sensor on the 6.0 is just above the starter. YOu will have to take the starter out to see it.

Will I be able to hook up the connector with the starter on?

I had to take off my starter to get at it. I'm sure you will also.

dammit... I didn't have to do that on the 5.7 because all of the wires were unplugged when I pulled the engine so I had to have gotten to it somehow (assuming it is in the same place on both engines)

You might be able to reach it, but I couldn't find it blind up in there.

Got it I snaked my head around under the car around the starter and found that little sucker. Then I used a long screwdriver to get it started and went back up top and pushed it in. Thanks for the help.
