Steve no I used the stand alone and kept the factory ecu in place to run certain gauges....I do have a splice in here that i was going to utilize, but being it was show quality the stand alone made much more appeailing install than the factory harness.. WCC is west coast corvettes... now who actually built the engine or who was involved I do not know..but it was the owner of that company that had it built for themselves from what i understand....the spec list on the engine is quite impressive ..no expense was spared even down to the beryllium seats..

That's an amazing car!

I'm waiting for the day to come when someone builds a motor like that and straps on a 106mm turbo.
