Is the L98 wiring harness from an F-body the same as wiring harness from a Corvette?
Out of curiosity, are the wiring harnesses (with MAP sensor) for a 350 TPI from a 90-92 GTA/Z28/Iroc the same as the 90-91 Corvette?
I would imagine that they are since GM was all about recycling parts, but wanted to check since there is a ton of experience in this board.
My goal is to use an L98 from a Corvette and have it work in my (now TBI) '88 T/A. I'm trying to find the best way to go about it. Common sense paired with some research & searching assumes that I could do one of the following:
- Use L98 from Corvette along with Corvette wiring harness and Corvette ECU with VATS disabled.
- Use L98 from Corvette along with F-body wiring harness and F-body ECU with VATS disabled.
Are the TPI harnesses for the Corvette and F-body are the same?
Will they plug into the same C100?
Will an L98 from a Corvette run on an F-body PCM?
My apologies if this has been asked before, but I have searched a ton and haven't found a solid answer. If you know of a thread that can point me in the correct direction, please post it up.
Thanks!

Not even close, your better off making the tbi harness work. the 88 is a one year only ecm same pinout as the 746. Make the changes bye repining and adding the injector pigtail and go with the 1227730 ecm.

But just so I'm 100%- the Corvette L98 will run on the 730 PCM without an issue? I mean, it should by all means, but just want to be sure.
