hey i'm working on my 2001 camaro convert 3.8L car. i just got the fuel system swapped over to two line today from the v6 three line. and while i was standing in the engine bay i noticed that the wires that go to the fans were cut and i didn't know if you could tell me what wires go where. also using the ls1 computer and engine harness will that pick up throttle position or e-fan turn on? and what do i do about the speedo. the car has 57k on it and if i swap it to a v8 cluster can i swap the readout for the v6 one and make it show the 57k still? i just found the pedal setup now i'm trying to track down the throttle cable but that shouldn't be a problem

Hey Merv. I know this is a hella old thread but might as well ask questions in here since I found this thread via the LSx conversion thread in that section. Probably already asked 100x over but I havent come across it. Just picked up a 2000 Camaro with a blown V6 motor. are the K-Members the same or do I need one from an LS car?

And if this was already asked and answered then excuse my question. Thanks.
