Alldatadiy has the wiring diagrams.

Skip the trailblazer manifolds. The passenger side is fine, but the driver side kicks out into the frame rail at a funny angle. The 2010-15 Camaro SS manifolds are the best factory manifolds for these older narrow-frame trucks. They stay tucked in tight, and it's easy to get a wrench on the manifold flanges from the top side. The 2010-15 Camaro manifolds are relatively cheap if you peruse the classifieds of various Camaro enthusiast forums and facebook groups. Folks frequently pull them off when installing long tubes. You should be able to pick up a set for around $100. Try to get a couple inches of the down pipe to go with the manifolds. That will make it easier fabricating the rest of the exhaust.
