Default 1998 Formula pcm options

I just bought a 1998 formula. Its a roller and was originally an auto car. Id like to put a 6 speed in it. The car currently doesnt have a engine/trans harness or pcm.

I found a 1998 engine/m6 harness for sale ($200), but I'm wondering at this point if it would be beneficial to swap in a 99&up harness/pcm. What would be involved in connecting the interior harness to a 99 up? I could get a different cluster if needed and I have a fuel tank out of a 00 camaro.

I will be putting the motor from my 02 Trans Am into the car since I have a new motor for it.

i have a 98 formula also that we built a 408 stroker for it. I bought a 2002 ecm and in process of rewiring or repinning it. If it is an easy installation you can have the 98 from my car.

I have a harness out of a 2000 M6 Camaro for $200 shipped if you're interested. Lemme know.

You need to do more work, but it's much better to have a 99+ PCM. The tuning capabilities and data stream speed is worth every hour spend rewiring and making gauges work.
