This is probably as good a chance as any to ask:

What did you use for engine management on your LS1 pickup? I have considered planning a v8 swap for the 280zx in the next few years, and I am turned of on the LS1 option by the thought of having to cobble up an engine management system and wiring harness.

I stuck with the factory ECM in mine (2000 Camaro) along with sending the factory harness to Speartech (he was the only game in town at the time, I'm sure others do the same thing now) to have it modified. Came back set up so that it basically only needed me to connect the gauges, +12V constant, and +12V keyed.

Add a tune to eliminate things that were removed (EGR) and it's done. Really easy to work with, honestly.

You make it sound pretty painless (though I am sure it is still painful!).

Pricing on a harness isn't horrible:

Luckily I won't have time/money/motivation any time in the forseeable future.

Thanks!
