Default LS1 Truck harness swap into z28 question

I read some information on rewiring might be a bit difficult.....any tips or people that have done it? This is my first swap so I have plenty to learn!

Best thing to do is read the huge sticky. Pretty much everything is covered in that one sticky.

Or go to lt1swap.com

i used the LT1swap info when i repinned my harness. print everything out, label ever wire, and take your time.

you will need to convert the injector pigtails to ev1 style and you'll need to determine if you want to use the 5-wire truck maf w/ iat built in or the fbody 3 wire setup. I've got a spare set of injector pigtails kicking around i didnt use from my swap if needed

Built my own from a truck harness too. Take your time and do your research. Its a very time consuming job so be patient
