The one for my 87 was plug and play. 30 minute job and did not break a sweat. I have heard there may be a wire terminal to mod on some of them though. Did you look on the website for instructions??

Go here:

http://www.blowerworks.net/

Click the downloads link on left.

Scroll down and you'll see the "Corvette 1989 thru 1996 GSS 340 In-tank Fuel Pump Installation Guide"

It's really good, this is what I used a while back.

Spankyellow - you are correct, there is a slight wire mod.

Any electrical splicing, or was it "plug and play"?
