No problem, I just hope that the way I hooked everything up will also work for you, because it was SUPER easy that way.

I used the original and cut it off the stock harness since my harness was messed up anyways, I didnt feel bad hacking away! I tried making everything "look" stock...ish.

you can get the mounts from these guys and use an adapter plate that lets you use LS mounts on the LT1/SBC block.
