Default New to site.

Hi all. I am still trying to learn how to use the site so bear with me. lol. Here are some pics of my 1970 Camaro that I completely restored. I have bought a 30,000 mile 6.0 and am planning on installing some upgrades on it and swapping it into my car this winter. Thanks.

The motor is a 2001, I want to try to use the factory harness, but what do I do about an OBDII port? All I got was the engine harness, not the dash harness. My plan was to put the PCM in my glove box. I cant wait to start this project.
