My 50 roadster pickup build

[mongocanfly]

I was just fixing to ask about the ecm location..and Marc beat me to it
The last few swaps I've done ,I used PSI harnesses on..happy enough with them except the harness is to short to reach under the seat..BP is supposed to be long enough to reach under seat

Yes, I went with a BP Automotive harness and it was long enough to mount under my driver seat with no issue. I'm sure Jim has a well thought out plan.

Jim is usually atleast one or two steps ahead of us on planning!

Thanks guys with the comments. Yes I will be cleaning. The ECM, etc. will be going under the seat. I also went with the BP automotive harness. Mark has installed several, and is the way to go. Don't know about two steps ahead, but I ordered stuff starting in July and have everything I thing I need on hand. The only hang up is the shifter, I ordered it in sept. was to be here this week, so show, called and was told it won't be until Dec 6.

I noticed the change in the color of the new LS from the old SBC. Are there any other paint changes or will the LS get repainted?

Will be interested to know where the PCM gets placed and which harness you use.

Greg, Russ, Outlaw, Marc and Robert. Thanks guys, it's moving along, but may have to change a few things up. Robert everthing will be under the seat, I'm using the BP automotive harness, which is longer, so it should work out. Yes I was ready for different color in the engine bay, I painted the LS this color...Jim
