Re: harness question

you need the one that goes with the motor, also you will need to have the VATS taken off, vehicle Anti-Theft System before it will run more than 3 seconds.

Re: harness question

I dont think it will, the 94 had the old LT motor in there and I believe it required lower fuel pressure similar to the GEN I motors, you need one that can supply 55-58 PSI constantly. if you have one that pushes more, then a fuel pressure regulator will be needed.

A 94-96 B-body (Caprice, Impala SS, Roadmaster) fuel pump will fit your sender & deliver the correct pressure & volume.
