You will need to use a 2002 Camaro pcm & harness. LPE sells the 58x to 24x reluctor adapter module so that you don't have to change the reluctor wheel. As there is no drive by cable vehicle that use the 58x reluctor.

I thought they ran an aftermarket system. I think a Holley one. There is one running the local track I'll look next time he is there.
