Default f-body v6 to ls1 swap. Injector wire splice?

I'm in the process of swapping a 98 ls1 into my 99 firebird and i've hit one snag. I know i'll need to splice in a wire for my fuel injectors because the v6 only uses one fuse to run the injectors and the ls1 uses two. However, what do i splice into? I've seen Magnus's site on his swap and he mentions this, but i can't find much info on what or where.

Run all injectors off one fuse and up the fuse one size. THis is how almost any conversion harness is set up. No need to run two fuses.

I wasn't meaning run two fuses. Most people i've read splice the extra fuel injector wire in with the one wire that's already on a fuse. I just don't know which wire that is or what my options are for splicing it.

Your gonna need the pinouts for all the harness connectors as almost nothing lines up. The plugs will connect, but nothing will work. If you haven't done this and repinned the connectors to work, your gonna have more then one snag.
