GM part #12559760 about $5.00

[glock35ipsc]

Yup, that's where it goes. If yours is plugged you can get a nipple from the stealership or a bone yard. I don't have a part number handy though.

I will be very happy with anything over ~ 260.

[fpjr0]

yes it has a plug that comes off easy quick connect way,I guess I just have to go to the dealer and look for one of those nipple to put in there,,,,I been thinking


I am gonna start using this thread post intead of the regular forum for my questions,, seems like all the guys that know this stuff stay around here

Funny...I opened my wallet and heard, "Bob has the money. It's going to a good cause."

Congrats on page 50. I hope you see 290 plus on the dyno. Jay

[fpjr0]

man I am redoing my own harness I could safely say I am about 98% DONE. it wasnt that hard,,, just need to know so of you guys are using stand alone harness, are you guy running the plug to the sensor right on top of the throttle body, I think it has to do with the eva/ emissions stuff?,

[glock35ipsc]

This one?



If so, yes, EVAP solenoid. Nope, not needed. I just used a vacuum cap on mine. Be sure to tell whoever does your PCM to delete.

Now, if it's actually on your TB, we'll need to see a pic to be sure.

Sweet, thanks for the part number!

As we find more info I add it to the LS thread in my signature.

[Thealien]

Here is where I found the information
HERE

[glock35ipsc]

Ah yes, I have that swap printed and in "the book".

[glock35ipsc]

Excellent. I'm in the middle of putting together a spreadsheet of part numbers that I used, and any others that are relevant that I come across, in hopes of coming up with a list of minimum parts needed to do a swap.

Your thread is killer BTW!!!

[menace121978]

right on! that is a good article. i'm going through it now

[rongstad]

Gee another expensive part i need to buy........

[Thealien]

Working on another one now. Don't know if it should be added to that one or on its own.

I am trying to put together a GM parts list for connectors and pins for all the harness connectors in case anyone wants to build their own harness or repair broken connectors. Its turning out to be a daunting task. All I have info for is a 2005 5.3 and I only have 80% of the connector pictures?

[glock35ipsc]

Looks like you probably have what I have?

[Thealien]

Very similar but I saved yours anyway. Might be easier to just use your links in my thread also.

I didn't look but does yours have the transmission connectors, oil pressure, and the engine harness to coils connectors? Those weren't included in what I had and I had to find them. If you don't have those I can forward them to you in an email. Mine are in a less user friendly format.

[glock35ipsc]

Just to give you all an idea of what I am doing for part numbers.

I might go through and note part you will need for sure, and what are optional. Instead of an overall list of what out there, I'm doing something more along the line of a minimum list of what you will want/need to do a swap into a square body, and might tweak it for a 67-72 also.

It's not complete, this is just where I am at right now.
