Default engine harness conversion question

I've got a 1999 V6 camaro (4th gen) that I cant git rid of. So....I guess I'm going to do a LS motor swap. My question is the harness and all the BS that goes with it. The mechanical aspects are straight forward, it the gauges, sensors, TB, O2, and all the other electrical gremlins that I'm dreading. Any input or links to threads would greatly appreciated. Thanks

thank you very much. I searched but man, you talk about overwhelming. There were so many conversions and links. And some people using this and not that. And others using that and no this. Again, thanks for the lead.

Using the search engine with "v6 firebird" yielded among other things this link:

That thread contained this link:

It's possible that using "v6 camaro" as the search term might be useful also.

Good luck!

Bump for you, I'm also curious. I've been searching and the only thing I'm really dreading is the wiring also. I find thing every now and then and all the sudden you see some guys saying do this or don't touch that.

What about all of the BCM stuff behind the dash? I've seen something about a pink wire "INJ 2" on the fuse box but didn't really understand any of it.

Here's a couple links that I have as favorites for when I start my LS1 swap in the other car that may help you some.
