So it’s been a lot of hurry up and wait here. Not sure I posted this but all 3 of my kids tested positive for COVID. And per Hawaii law, all of us (me, wife, and kids) were quarantined for over 20 days.
Wiring-
I did end up getting a LS1 stand-alone harness. I couldn’t find a gen 4 stand-alone. Turns out the 2008 was an oddball Ls due to connectors etc.

I did have to cut off and replace the ev1 to ev6 injector connectors. From old harness. This was free for me. I’ve read mixed reviews on adapters and this way it’s permanent.
The map sensor I had looks compatible but if you do this double check that
I did have to order some older style O2 sensors denso 234-4337
The coil brackets, coil harnesses, and coil harness extenders have finally come in this week. Took about 3 weeks to get those. And the flexible oil dipstick says oct-nov to arrive.
My harness came with compatible parts id’s. I ordered a maf sensor. Will probably need an ait sensor as well.
My pcm came in from lt1swap.com Brendon was great and super fast to work with. very close to being ready to start this.
Must have a ligenfelter trg-002. The Holley terminator x’s are still not in stock.
Need a 4pin to 2 pin alternator connector. I’ve thought about wiring it up myself but still reviewing harness diagrams. I do have a resistor here and maybe I can make that setup work. We’ll see. The ict billet 4pin to 2 pin waalt30-6 is only $30.
Will be ordering gauges soon. Think I’ll be going with Faria Chesapeake in black.

And need fuel system. Mainly a pump. Anyone have suggestions for inline fuel pumps? I’m thinking about an inline pump from summit and keeping an evil energy from Amazon onboard as a backup.
It’d be pretty pricey to put in tank pumps in and really a pain if they failed.
