Will the '95+ wiring harness plug into the '94 computer?
Or do I use a '94 harness and plug into the '95+ motor?
I don't need a motor at this time but want to get things worked out now so when I am in a rush to replace the motor I will be ready.

Hey Kurt, that ebay listing says he is parting out the truck. Might be a diff actuator or birfs laying around.
It would be far easier to use the 94 harness.
Take the parts off the 94 motor that need to plug into the harness and exchange them for the parts on the 95 motor that won't.

You will need to match the computer to the wiring harness(93-94 vs 95-97), they do not intechange. There are different connectors. Also as I said in the previous post the 95-97 computer contains the chip for the tranny.
thanks dan for correcting me on the distributor. I would of figured that it was different when changeing to OBDII. IT really is not that much trouble to switch out the wiring harness. The bitch is swaping out the pan or the crank sensor. I would also reccomend that you do a head gasket and seal and pan seal if the engine is out to save lots of time over doing these in the truck. It takes me a day to do a head gasket, pans and seal if the engine is out of the truck. where it would take almost 3 days to do all the above in the truck. later robbie

So these are my options
1) If I go with a '95+, then I need to swap out the top end parts with my motor ( is the head the same rom the '94 to '95?)
2) get a complete 95+ motor, trany and computer. Remove all may '94 motor parts and install the '95+
3) rebuild my old motor or rebuild a donor motor
4) get a short block from Cdan and rebuild my old head

5. buy another good running 80 and deligate the war wagon as a rolling parts bin.

$50 would be more than most of the members would have invested in their vehicles.
The fee would be $0.50.
