I GOT A MOTOR!!!!!!

This is a real project now...NO turning back!
Its a 5.3 out of a 2001 something or other with 49K...Picked it up for 800.00. I DO have to get the accessory parts for it like the alternator, PS pump etc...
Do any of you know...the stock wiring harness...will I ditch that when I get a harness from painless wiring, or of the like?
Pretty excited...got a lil scared looking at it and imagining the work that is gonna need to be done to make this a reality.

Just FYI!
