i dont have a clue about a harness but i imagine it wouldnt change anything since it is the computer that reads the pulses from reluctor wheel to determine crank position...

you could probably see the wheel if you dropped the oil pan

Should be later then '05 for the 58x. Just look at the crank sensor connector above the starter. If its grey, its 58x if its black, its 24x.

If the PCM does not match the reluctor wheel it will not start. You have to have the correct computer for the reluctor wheel.
