You could definatly use the original harness. You would just use some of the wires that went to the starter/ignition and hook to the fuse block. |

Then, you need an engine wiring harness. I'm using an engine wiring harness from a 2004 silverado. I re-worked it myself to make it work without the unneccessary wiring. Then, you need to get power to the engine wiring harness. This is where I used the SA-001 fuse block from current performance. It kinda ties the engine wiring harness together with the truck wiring harness. This isn't completely necessary, but makes for a cleaner, more reliable, and easier installation. Otherwise you will need to track down a few relays and figure out the fuses. Anyway you slice it you will be staring at some wiring diagrams for awhile ![]() |

So here is the wires coming through the firewall from the EZ wiring harness

The injectors are rotated around backwards and all of the wires are stuck between the fuel rail and the manifold.

Sorry, no pics of the frame without the tank I haven't actually wired up the tank, but I did play around with it a little when I was pressure testing my fuel lines. Anyways, I looked at the wiring diagram for the T/A I got it from. I'll be doing the actuall wiring on Tues. or Wednesday and I'll take some notes. |

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
What is the TAC module? Sounds familiar but it is escaping me right now.

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
Small black box the pedal and harness both plug into (if you have drive by wire) TAC = Throttle Actuator Control or something like that.

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
Ack,
Great progress on the wiring. Is that an electrically controlled speedo? Who makes it? Dang, it looks super cool and expensive! I assume you are going to get a speed signal from the pcm? Just, out of curiosity why did you mount the SA-001 panel on the core support and not inside with the other components? I guess they can handle moisture? You making a shield to go over it? Thanks, Mike |

The speedo is an Autometer sport comp. electric speedo ~$200 Good question about the SA-001.....I mounted it there cause I was originally going to mount the ECM on the inner fender.....I guess it never dawned on me to move it inside too. I wasn't planning on making a shield for it, since it already has covers over the fuses and relays. |

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
99-02 Camaro/trans am is what it is. I believe the 98 fuel tank is smaller (and metal if my memory is right.

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
Kept plugging away at the wiring tonight.
I drilled and tapped the frame for ground wires. Since my battery is in the bed, and the entire frame was painted with POR15, I figure this is the best way to ensure I get a good ground. I need to get a few connectors tomorrow to hook up the ground wires. So tomorrow I hope to get it running. I have a few things to do: Wire up the ALDL to I can flash the ECM. Get some bolts for the headers to fully install them Wire up a few more wires. Hook up the power steering lines Go over everything one last time to make sure it "should" all work. So hopefully if all goes well I'll post a video of Bruiser running. |

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
No running today. I ran out of time, but I'm very very close.
I realized I need some newer gas. The gas that is in the tank is ~year old (when I did the plumbing for the tank) and then I need a 2 guage lug for the battery cable. Then I have just a few more wires to hook up. The fuel pump and sending unit, the MAF switched wire, and some more ground wires. If we weren't going out tonight it would be running tonight...... |

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
How did you mount your PCM? I didn't see any bracket?

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
It looks like he modified the original mounting sheetmetal bracket to mount it to the tranny cover.

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
I drilled out the ECM bolt holes and then put some 1/4" all thread threw the holes, and then tightened the ECM cover back down with some nuts. Then I adjusted the all thread so it was long enough to go through the sheet metal mount.

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
Shouldn't these PCMs have a little isolation from vibration?

Re: Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread
Don't know. I could pretty easily add some rubber washers if it's a problem or concern. I have to remove the ECM and stuff at some point to paint my mount. |
