Help Wanted
Hey all,
I put a 86' engine and tranny into a 87' body and I need help splicing the engine harness to make it work properly. So if you are around Worcester and want to help, name a price and hopefully we can work something out

Its a non-turbo engine going into a turbo shell so I kept the EM harness intact to the ECU and the ECU plugged in perfectly but the driver site harness has some differences

I think it will be a lot easier swapping to the N/A harness. I have converted the N/A harness to work with the turbo and there are some extensions that have to be made. Does this motor have all the emissions related parts (rats nest). If not there is not to much to hook up. I maybe missing a thing or two but,
alternator
fuel injectors
afm
tps
water temp sensor
pressure sensor
bac
ait
oil pressure sender
oil level sensor
and I believe that is it. Like I said I use a N/A harness to run the turbo motor, but once I modified it, I was still able to use the harness on both with no problems. As long as the emissions is removed. Hope that helps a little.

I originally put in the N/A harness because the Turbo harness was all cut up from the previous owner and I've been trying to make a combination of the two to but I think there are grounds missing and a few wires that are either going to the the wrong spot or not hooked up at all. The main problem I believe is somewhere between the starter and the ignition (probably neutral safety switch) and I also have a dimming problem like there isn't enough power even when the car is running (very roughly) so im sure there is a number of things wrong with my wiring.
