Gsl-se

ive found a gsl-se that im interested in, but it has no motor. But i have a buddy thats giving me a 12a, what would i have to do to make this work. Also i was think about what i might want to do further down the line. And a 13b T sounds nice, but would the wireing in the car need much change to support the ecu for this eng?

90% of the FC wiring is plug and play between the ECU and engine.
The left side harness (about 12-15 wires) must be fabbed up between the ECU and the 2nd gen coils,fuelpump,CAS and ECU power relay/FC fuse box.

There is no need to splice into or otherwise violate the FB's original wiring to get a 2nd gen engine's EFI up and running.The whole thing is quite easy, IF you know what your looking at before you start.In other words,READ UP.
Get an FC factory service manual if your serious.
This has been covered a bazillion times in the last few months so if you want more specific info,do a search.
