Hey everyone, I have an 86 notch, it was and auto and 4cyl. I have an entire 89 donor car for a v8 swap. I have got everything I need, but I'm wanting to what I need to do with the wiring? I'm keeping the efi.
I searched and I could not find what I needed.

swap over the entire EEC, engine, injector, O2 harness along with the EEC would be the best thing.
I would also swap over the brakes, spindles, transmission, engine, exhaust fuel pump, lines, etc...lol

The gauge cluster is different between the two years, what to do about that?

Click to expand...

Wiring diagrams and splicing.

A lot of the connectors changed style between 86 and 87. He'll need to swap most of the harness over, and do some splicing.

Or run an aftermarket ECU setup with standalone wiring
