Just the engine bay harness for a TBI ECM truck? 87 4x4 3/4 ton?

Are the harnesses going to be the same from 87-91 Jim? How about 1/2 vs 3/4 vs 1 ton?

As in what all will be copmpatible with his?

87-91. the 3/4 and 1 tons have the hot fuel module, but it can be added, or not used at all.I have seen the hfm as another problem in the mix. i would only run one if it was a fleet truck hauling a zeeman trailer that makes frequent stops.
The connectors are available new, and would be a better option than replacement of the whole harness.
Here is where I get my plugs, its a camaro shop, but the tbi and tpi camaros run the same plugs as all the other gm cars of that era.

www.truckandcarshop.com has a large selection of harnesses, both repro and NOS. However, They only have them for 73-82. As soon as I can find out if the 82 engine harness is compatible with the 86 I may be picking one up.:emotions33:

the only engine related stuff on an 82 is the choke, oil presure, temp gauge, ignition...unless you have the electronic timing with the knock sensor. what exactly are you trying to do?
