Default Help!!! DBW?? Also ECM??

OK hear it goes I'm new to fuel inj so any advice and help is greatly appreciated what I have is a 5.3 truck motor that I'm putting in my 70 chevelle this is going to be a tt set up so I changed to ls6 cam and springs and a ls1 intake now hear is wear i ran into a problem i was going to use the DBW set-up off of the truck so I bought the pedal and tach box etc. then I laid the harness out and could not find the plug that plugs into the TB. Now i did find one spot that has been cut on harness and it had 17 wires in that bundle. then I bought some 65# inj and found out they are EV6 plug and are for a ls3 so won't work with fuel rails and I was told the truck harness has it's own kind of plus for the inj. also the ecm I have says green plug on one side and blue plug on the other but the harness has red and blue plus. what I'm wondering is should I sell the harness I have and get a DBC or should I try to find a plug for the DBW and get a different ECM and change the inj plus. Now if anybody has a DBC harness they want to trade for a DBW harness thats only missing one plug let me know. if it helps the # on ECM are 12586242 and 12583660 any idea if this is DBW or DBC and what year thanks guys Josh

Just get a. Ew plug and get the wiring diagram. It's not hard at all. I'm at work or I would send u my setup. Also u get get the d w plug at a junk yard off most v6 and v8 cars. If you can't find the wiring I'll be home in about two weeks and can shed some light for you.

Thanks that would be great I would love to run what I have just because I all ready have it. The only thing I really don't know about is the injector plugs and the DBW plug I'm missing. Like I said any help is greatly appreciated. If you could send me any info when you get home that would be great. Thanks again Josh
