Ls1 to ls3. Whats needed? Hi.
I have searched but only found old threads. So this is it what i know for now and what i need:
24x reluctor wheel
Ls1 map sensor. Or is it better to go with the ls3 and just use a adapter harness for that instead?
Ls1 knock sensors. One on each side
Ls3 fuel injector connectors
Crankshaft sensor ls1 black
Cable driven throttle body
I saw this thread, but does it applies ls3 also? Have i missed something?

I'd get my wires here http://racetronix.biz/items.asp?Cc=H...TpStatus=1&Tp=
but before spending any money you might spend more time reading, just a suggestion. You haven't told us what you're starting with so it's hard to say for sure what you'll need.

just a thought, but is it possible to use a ls3 engine harness and pcm instead of a ls1 harness?

i´ve got confirmed that the ls3 map sensor works with the ls1 pcm if i get a adapter cable. so now it´s only two more questions that remains.
1:
is it possbile to use a ls3 harness and ecm (ecu,/pcm or what it?s called) and get it to work? instead of using adapter cables etc
2:
change the refluctor wheel to 24x. i know which parts i have to use BUT, the only thing i don?t know if have have to change the cam to a 3 bolted. or can i use the stock ls3?
