Factory service manual? Does anyone know a good source for a factory service manual for a '05/'06 GTO? I had one of these manuals for the donor vehicle when I swaped in late model EFI engine (1993 Jeep Cherokee) in my older CJ Jeep and it had everything you would need for the wiring harness. This isn't like a $20 Chilton or Haynes manual you buy at Autozone, but a very detailed manual with prints that give you specific wire colors and pin locations for all of the wiring. I am curious with the GTO specifically as to what exactly changed from '05 to '06 since most of the '05 used to x24 tooth reluctor wheel and all of the '06 used the x58 tooth reluctor wheel engine...

You want the publication from Helm Inc., they have done the GM factory manuals for years and they are available retail.You can order them through some "better" GM dealer parts departments or direct from Helm Inc..

The E40 ECM in a GTO will not support the 58x wheel.
I found my helms manuals on ls2gto.com in teh for sale forums, I paid around $100 shipped.

Are you 100% sure about that? I was led to beleive that the late '05 and almost all '06 GTO's came with the 58x motors??? Do you know exactly what is different in the '05 GTO harness and if it could be used with a 58x motor/ECU?
