Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
It's just the data line that feeds the OBDII port. Check this website out: http://lt1swap.com/geniv_harness.htm
LS1Tech.com is good also.

When you get it tuned they can delete afm/dod from ecm so it will stay in 8cyl mode at all times.

I do have some bad news to go along with it. FedEx Freight shipped the drivetrain and wouldn't you know it... DAMAGE!!!  The harness is pinched (at least one severed wire), intake is broken/cracked, 2 coils are broken, and plug wires. Several harness plugs are broken, including one for the ecm (the blue J1 plug), all 4 O2 sensors are damaged and they mangled the dipstick/fill tubes... not that I was planning on using them, but dam!  Notice the two plug wires hanging in front of the manifold? Yeah, broken... This is the worst O2 sensor, but all are bent and 2 more have exposed copper wires The worst coil, but the 2nd has the harness plug broken out of it, with part still in the coil Pieces of the intake fell off... check the fins, they are all supposed to be straight and vertical.  The broken J1 plug. I have contacted the seller and they are going to put in a claim and refund me the cost of the damage. Hopefully FedEx will cover legitimate costs and not just what they think it's worth. Although, I can't expect the seller to eat the cost of shipping damage, I hope they all make this good.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10

The trans tail shaft seal was damaged, and there was wood particles inside... sorry for the blurry pic, didn't notice it until today.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
The seller is trying to find a value for the damaged parts so I can get a partial refund for the damaged cost. They are also looking for a harness to just replace the one I have. Hopefully they have better luck than I do. Called the local Chevy dealership and talked to the parts department with the VIN and was told they had two different part numbers, but couldn't get a price. Neither of those part numbers matched up with what my harness has on it.
I would just replace it, but Speartech is one of the only places I can find that does wiring for the 6L90 transmission with the engine harness. And I can't tell without calling them first if they would even do it for this new of a computer. Regardless, their harness is $950 without any add ons..... that's a bit too rich for my blood. I emailed Brendan at LT1swap.com and he replied and told me he has no info for the E78 ECM, and does not do any programming on them either. Looks like that's a dead end for me. Hopefully GM didn't do a lot of changing on their wire colors from one ECM to the other. I think I'll see if I can trace the wires and start my own pinout. We'll see if I can do it. I'm not an electrical engineer, or even a fan of wiring, so this is going to be a BIG challenge. If anyone knows another company that makes swap harnesses, let me know. I'll look them up and see if they can provide me with a new harness for this swap.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
Man, I really hope they make that right for you. That'll be a sweet set-up once you get it all straightened out.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
Ugh...they must have piled other packages on it.
Check BP, PSI, Howell for harness options. |

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
Thanks for the suggestions Doug, I've already put out requests for Speartech and Howell, but I've just added BP and PSI. Hopefully one of them is able to do this with the new ECM.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
So a little update...
Speartech and PSI both told me they do not support the E78 ECM. PSI said they suggest buying their harness and an E38 ECM to work with their harness. BP never got back to me, nor did Howell. I shall be trying to practice thinning out my junk harness before I get the replacement, so I know what needs to be kept and what can to go. I did get confirmation from the seller that they have already acquired all the broken parts and will be shipping them to me, except the harness. They have put in a special order with GM to have a harness pulled from the assembly line. No idea how they have that kind of pull, but that will be awesome! Hopefully it works out. No ETA on that yet though.

Re: Knomadd '71 SWB C-10
And here it is in all the Chevy Orange glory!
 I will be painting the crank pulley and all the accessories semi-gloss black. The crank pulley has already started to rust a bit, so it needed painting anyway. Don't mind the overspray.
